Mural, Mural on the Wall

I've got murals on the brain today- sort of dreaming of some giant something on my new/soon to be/when husband gets a new job office/studio.

Now we all know that this sort of thing can go wildly wrong...it can of course, also go VERY right...

The zebra and panther makes me crazy...as does the watercolour heaven above...would love either in my office.

Also, since I also like to think of others....

If When my hubster ever gets a new job and thus needs a home office, I'm totally doing huge spooky portrait/anitque like people all over his walls...Meredith came up with that idea a few months back and oh how I want to make it happen.

I see lottery tickets in my near future;)

Okay these are all amazing. I can't decide which one I like best...although I am really drawn to that large map.

These are all super amazing! I live the mosaic tile mural on the fireplace, that whole room is divine.

My favorite thing in my house is my mural in the master bath! "Violet" I am just in love with her! I am thinking about doing something in my dinning room but just not sure what to do...great inspiration :)

I'm totally on board with this one... I would LOVE a mural at home... probably chinoiserie or maybe a renaissance painting... Hope all is going well on your side of the world :)

I so hope you win that lottery! I can only imagine the beautious things you will come up with

Oh, I love them. Each one. The intensity of them is breathtaking. But how does one become brave enough to spend the time and money to put a mural on a wall, or on all the walls, when it could be terrible? How can one be guaranteed that it would be as awesome and breathtaking as these?

That watercolor one is amazing!! I'd love something like this in a home office. Beautiful images!

love a good mural and you just showed me a ton that i hadn't seen before. major inspiring. my only concern is that you can't take it with you IF you ever move... that's my concern. i know you plan to stay put though, so get to it!

Love the Paris map one!

Gorgeous!

Adore the last one with the pretty pastel loveliness.

I love all these murals! They all seem to change the entire room and transport you somewhere else. If only I had a million dollars, my house would be COVERED in these!

dramatic, impactful, and definitely the talk of the town!! My favs are the Paris map mural, the image of the kid in the office, and that watercolor one!! Gorgeous!

I would love to have chinoiserie wallpaper in my home some day! I'd do a whole room though, not just a wall.

You know I love that fifth one down! ;-) Thanks again for posting my work, Christine!!

How2home said...

I'd love to have a mural in my future house for sure...the only problem is ...where would you find someone to paint that or wall paper? It's so difficult to find them!

Those are AMAZING examples.

These are all very stunning wall murals, Christine. It’s great how artists can come up with a brilliant concept and turn that piece of their imagination into reality. What particular designs are you planning to put on your walls, my friend?
