#0, fresco murals....
Posted by karla on 02-Oct-02 at 04:44 PM
i have been doing frescoes on panels for a few years now and until recently the largest pieces have been about 5 feet by 2.5 feet, taking me 2 giornatas to complete. now i have been commissioned to do a very detailed mural, about 7 feet by 5 feet, and am looking for advice as to how to approach it. i have seen it done only on video, and read about the process, but don't feel exactly solid in my knowledge of it of course until i have a go at it myself. i am looking for any tips that some of you with experience doing murals could give me. i am also in a quandry as to how to go about pricing such a thing. any advice out there would be greatly appreciated!
thank you and i look forward to hearing from you!
