A Landscape Nursery Mural
It’s wild how this nursery mural project from roughly a year ago blended all those possibilities. I was commissioned to create a nursery mural that tied together three cherished landscapes for new parents Candace and Kevin: Lake Tahoe, Siesta Key, and Kansas sunflower fields. Each of these places holds special meaning to them, and they wanted their daughter to grow up surrounded by the love and memories these locations represent.
This project wasn’t just one mural—it was three interconnected murals in one room. My goal was to make them cohesive while keeping each scene distinct. It was both exciting and a little nerve-wracking to take on something so large-scale, but the result? Worth every second.
Mural: Our Bedroom
I’m my own biggest target market—at least, I definitely am when it comes to residential murals. This bedroom mural is now the fourth official mural in our home (two in my office, one in my husband’s office, and one in our fireplace). And I feel like a literal broken record because I come to this place each time a new mural is done - I feel so full, but I can’t fully describe what that full feeling is. Is it joy? Is it peace? Is it pride? Is it some sort of combo meal of feelings? What is it that I’m really trying to share? Why do murals hype me up? And how do I get everyone else to be just as excited about their own living/working/existing space?
