Underwater murals are fun for the vibrant splashes of color that are allowed. I enjoy the challenge of replicating the beauty of nature. There is a certain mystery when it comes to creating an under water mural. It's a landscape that is foreign yet can be quite soothing at the same time.

I've painted these types of murals in all kinds of settings. Restaurants, dentist offices, daycare centers and elementary schools are just a few of the places I've created tropical fish murals for commercially. Most of my early murals were of this type when I painted for the Miami Subs restaurant chain. They were much more vibrant than seen here, but for a commercial application, that's usually a good thing.

In private homes these murals have found perfect placement in bedrooms of children, playrooms, restrooms and exterior walls surrounding swimming pools.

Painting dolphins and whales ...... probably the most intriguing of the underwater features to paint. To see them in the wild is a breath-taking experience. Trying to capture the dolphins playful spirit and whimsical nature is my challenge. .. such a fun element to the underwater mural. I love them!
