By their sheer size and ambition, murals can pose difficult and unique challenges for the artist. This practical book guides you through the process, from first choosing a design to applying the paint to the wall. Written by a leading artist, it covers the principles of artistic practice before explaining how to approach a large-scale project. Throughout, it shares the tips and tricks behind this most impressive of art forms. It covers in detail materials and equipment; colour theory and building a palette; planning a design; translating a sketch onto a large wall or canvas and it gives specific techniques including the use of stencils and trompe l'oeil. It guides you through the process from planning a design; understanding dimensions, composition and perspective and translating a sketch onto a large wall or canvas, and it will be an essential reference to artists, interior designers, theatre designers, scenic artists and entertainment venues. It is beautifully illustrated with 265 colour illustrations. Gary Myatt is a leading mural artist and his commissions take him around the world.
