Question 1

What is a mural?

Accepted Answer

A mural refers to a piece of graphic artwork that is directly painted or applied onto a wall, ceiling, or another enduring surface.
It can be text-based (such as a company motto or slogan, or an uplifting quote) or it might be more illustrative, using shapes, colours and imagery to make the wall look awesome.

Question 2

Do you use a stencil to paint the mural?

Accepted Answer

Maybe, sometimes a stencil will be used, but more often that not, a mural artist will have developed a technique to scale up a visual they have created on a computer, or tablet, or even sketched out in a sketchbook.

Murals are normally quite large, and will make the most of a blank wall, either inside or outside of a business. Some have been painted on the side of 20 floor apartment buildings.

Question 3

Why not just use a sticker or vinyl for the mural?

Accepted Answer

Murals are mainly painted onto a large, blank wall. Walls are often rough finished, and a sticker or vinyl will not stick to the rough walls for any length of time. Plus they look rubbish.

A hand painted mural will look spectacular. It will be lovingly painted by brush or spray can by an artist. An artist who wants to help you improve you business, by offering you the opportunity to use their skills to your advantage. Very few people will walk past a muralised wall without looking at it. So think of the number of extra people that large wall will help grow your business. They will look at the artwork, take in the artwork, and then look at the rest of your shop or building in a whole new light. They will be happier. They will have a smile on their face and they will remember your business.

No vinyl for me please, I'll have an awesome hand-painted version (https://www.admosigns.com/contact)
