This mural was done for the Charlotte Harbor Events and Conference Center in Punta Gorda, Florida. I was commissioned by the county to complete this extraordinary, underwater mural. It took 5 weeks to complete. I painted the top part on site as shown by the photo and then painted the bottom water part in my studio on a large piece of canvas 6 ft. by 18 ft. wide and then took that part to the site and adhered it to the wall. Then the underwater mural had to be finished by melding the two halves together. This was done by painting the murals water line obvious, placing mangrove roots and splashing bubbles underwater to make the depth of the water obvious. The dolphin in the center looks realistic, the snook off to the right are swimming in interesting shapes and the 5 tarpon swimming around the decomposing branches, on the left, have silver leafing I applied, on their scales to make them pop. It is enjoyed by the thousands who pass through this new building, for wedding receptions, parties, conferences and meetings of any kind. |
