Finally getting around to posting pictures of the murals I worked on this year.
The murals are © to Aquarium of the Pacific, but the photos are © to me.
Here's an overview of the Watershed Exhibit mural:
You can see that the mugwort's starting to overgrow the right side of the mural.
These days it's 6 ft tall and completely covers the bottom half of the mural.
Here's a shot of the left side of the mural:
The middle of the mural:
Several close-ups of some of the animals:
Great Blue Heron
Harvest Mouse
Black-Neck Stilt
Here are some photos from the Shark Zone murals on Harbor Terrace. While the watershed mural was painstakingly scientifically accurate, Shark Zone was done to brighten up the area. While the colors are truly that bright on some of the different species, I punched up some colors and shifted others. The mural is also a mix of tropical and temperate species.
The main part of the wall mural on the left wall:
The other side, on the right wall:
The two computer murals printed out as stickers. The one on the food cart is a combination of a watercolor whale shark with some Photoshop filters and a lot of copy-paste fish. That one had a short deadline and was done in a day. The one on the window is a Photoshop creation based on a rough pencil sketch. All the corals are put in there more for aesthetics than for the actual zone and place they grow in:
Here's the actual computer image of the window image, "Harbor Reef."
Some close-ups of the wall mural:
bat ray
bluespotted ray
Anemone! Based off a whitespotted rose anemone.
Hope you enjoyed your tour of the recent murals I worked on. I finally have them up!
