Commissioned | New Talent

Why did you make this work:
I was commissioned by the Illustration Department at The University For The Creative Arts in Farnham, to create a mural in the hallway. I wanted this piece to be something that brightened up the student experience for both returning and new students. I chose the theme to represent the feeling of community and togetherness, the diverse students and the bonds you make that live on after graduating.

How was the illustration used:
Mural

How did you make this work:
Started by roughly mapping out the mural design and proceeded to paint directly onto the wall using wall paints.
