On this page I would like to share some of my recent projects of handpainted wall designs. Decorating a room can be very creative, and a one-of-a-kind painting designed specially for the room can give it unique life...
In this recently rennovated boutique hotel in Kallstadt, Germany, Ann's mural and decorative painting enables the visitor to travel the world without leaving the hotel!
Trompe
L'oeil illusion paintings bring unique life to uninteresting entrances and hallways.
The
recreation of the wisteria that grows outside a living-room enables that room
to have wisteria in flower all the year round, and with the addition of a pair
of trompe l'oeil views of the French Riviera on blank cupboard doors flanking
the fireplace, residents can now relax and gaze on the Mediterranean as well...
A small north-facing bathroom provides setting for memories of favourite travels through a series of mini-murals. Another provides settting for a colourful fantasy marinescape.
Picking
up the monochrome floral background design of the old, classic Sanderson curtains,
gave a delicate finishing touch to a craft and exercise room without detracting
from the calm simplicity of the space...
Turning the family piano out into the room creates place for an unusual musical vine on the wall, and the exposed back of the piano provides space for a stylish 'grisaille' panel. A blank wall over a fireplace becomes a country scene...
Old furniture in a guest bedroom is given new life and 'style' with paintings featuring oriental themes.
The
border and floral motif projects are carried out in situ, mural projects usually
worked on panels or canvas in studio and erected at the location on completion.
Costs depend on the size and complexity of the project. The painting is done with
acrylics, which are flexible and durable, and can safely be used for decorating
in bathrooms or even out of doors.
Handpainted designs on a wooden floor provide an unusual alternative to carpet.
Ceiling painting need not be grand and elaborate, but can be light and relaxing.
Ann is also accepting commissions for individual paintings. Here are examples of recent works.
