This is the first mural painting for a private home. It took just a week but the freedom 

of the whole wall and painting in a different medium was both exciting and a challenge.

It reminded me of when I used to work on large charcoals that I tacked across my wall-

the freedom was an enjoyable aspect of the creation. The difference between working

on my own painting across the wall and in someone’s home is the discipline that creating

a painting for someone else entails. The editing process was much longer as well as

the client had the freedom to adjust the image to how they envisioned.

I was glad to be able to do passionvines as I have painted many passionvines and have

actually collected several species that I have raised. This particular painting is of the Passiflora

Violacia which is a plant I had bought on the internet. The pot was created from different options

that the client preferred.
