Murals on the wooden walls-2

Here is a front view on the shed. I am going to turn it into bricks' building. Doors will be turnrd into cast iron grid.

I will use acrylic paints, roller, flat brushes, sponge, masking tape and ... some partience.

Grid will pe painted by brushes. Sketch was made by pensil directly upon the doors. I used a stencil cut from paper to transfer grid picture.

Well the work is done. It would be more easier not to paint grid by brush, but use a stencil and a sponge. I also think, that background besides the grid should be very light with not many details. In any case, customer is happy, people stop to watch his "new shed".

Murals on the wooden walls

On July 25, 2010 I started to paint walls of a wooden shed.

Here it is - the ordinary wooden one. Walls of the shed are made from boards, so the surface is not plane.

I am going "to turn" shed into bricks' one. This side also should get a window with a sea view.

Roller, few flat brushes, sponge, masking tape and paints (orange, white and brown) - that is all I need to turn the shed into small bricks building.

Wall was painted in orange, white and brown spots on bricks were were made by sponge.

Window shades are brown, lights are white. I cut a paper stencil of the window arch and used it also for shades painting.

Sea "will live" inside of the house and people sitting outside in the evening time will wait for BBQ and watch a sea view through the window (but not a sad wooden wall).

Here it is!

Few details of a sea view are below.

Well a wall is painted. But these wall is not seen from the road, so I was asked to paint "something interesting" also at the front side of the shed.

Murals on the metal container

That is a story of metal shipping container. It was big and ugly.
We couldn't move it aside and I had nothing to do but to paint it.
Sides of the container were sanded, washed and primed by oil-based primer. Then it was painted light blue by latex paint (FLAT!!!). I was painting by brushes.

The job was finished in 7 days. So it looks now.

Hope it will advertise my painting business, bait store of my husband and fishing in Waterville, MN!
