My New Mural Timelapse

I'M BACK!

I've been very busy these past few months, with moving house and releasing a new album and of course painting this new mural.
I was never quite happy with my original wall design, it all felt very separated, there was no real flow to any of the logos, they were all just pasted beside one another, so with this one I wanted it to be more cohesive.

I used the exact same process as last time:
-Designing the image using the wall dimensions for scale
-Dividing up the image into A4 pages
-Flipping each A4 page
-Taping together pages to make one full logo
- Drawing heavily over the logo with a dark pencil
- Putting the design face down on the wall and tracing the back of it

You should be able to see my rough pencil marks on the wall that came through from tracing the back of the paper, I used that as a guide for painting. I did have to adjust some of the design as I was drawing it on the wall. This whole process was based on how well I lined up the very first sheet of paper, because every other page was based off that one, so in some places things didn't line up too well so I had to redo some sections. So if you're thinking of using the tracing method for transferring a design, be wary of that.

I should be back to weekly videos starting next week now that I have everything set up so I'll see you then!
