The last mural I made, when the walls in the children’s rooms were finished, is a large tree in my son’s room.

The basics

Again, of course, prepare everything well. That means looking for a good and clear drawing.

I found the drawing of this tree on google and projected it on the wall.

My projector

I always use a special projector for this, the artograph designer projector to project images that are already on paper.

I bought it years ago for my airbrush hobby.

Which colors

After the picture is in pencil on the wall, you need to start choosing the colors.

50 shades of green, so to speak. I never thought I would need so many different shades of green at once. And of course you have to work very quickly so that your colors do not dry and you can still mix them on the wall.

The tree was completely on the wall in about 2 hours.

To cover up the stains on the wall. We suffered from a leak. Also painted some clouds and continued the arches further on the wall as a finish.

The transition from the 2 color wall has suddenly been removed.

And the last photo is the finished result. In any case, Lucas was very happy with his beautiful tree.
