Wall painting in the pool

Starting from the new year, I began work on painting the walls in the pool. For the first time I got to the object at the stage of rough finishing.

The approximate area of ​​the walls for drawing is about 60 square meters. meters. The surface of the walls was prepared by the builders for painting.

A good ventilation and dehumidification system was provided in advance in the pool.

After the final decoration of the room - mosaics, radiators, etc., I photographed the walls to work on the sketch. Based on the examples of photographs, I think it is clear not only to artists that it is better and easier to come up with and develop a sketch for a drawing when the decoration in the pool room is already ready than at the stage of a rough repair. A stretch ceiling with a photograph of the sky was installed on the ceiling in the pool. In the process of drawing, I tried to pick up the same color of the sky in the painting, so that it looked whole.

Development of sketches for wall painting in the pool

The customer didn't really hamper me in choosing the plot and almost completely entrusted the choice of the theme for the sketches to my discretion. Having once visited a place where there are a lot of wild monkeys, after that I always wanted to depict this unusual and alien nature somewhere. And fate gave me about 60 square meters for drawing).

There are conditionally four large walls in the pool room. Two are practically free, only one of them is partially closed in the corner by a heating radiator. The third has a large TV in the middle and the fourth has three windows. In the sketches I tried to beat everything as much as possible.

The sketches were completely drawn in watercolor and then in the Photoshop program I mounted the image on the photo of the pool for visualization. Before working on the sketches, I picked up and looked through a whole bunch of photographs of similar landscapes, the color and shape of plants, etc. But of course, I have not seen an exact photograph that can be taken and completely copied. And all the work on the sketch is only imagination, and only the details can be peeped from the photographs.

Of course, the sketches themselves are not a clear scheme, but only an approximate arrangement of objects. The details are controversial. And already in the very process of drawing, I, at my discretion, change or add something to the drawing.
