I was asked to create a mural for Walmart store in Mount Pleasant, TX located about two hours drive north-east of Dallas. The mural is a vibrant celebration of Mount Pleasant, designed to inspire and uplift. The artwork dynamically depicts the city’s industrial and agricultural heritage, as well as plentiful outdoors activities found at its nearby lakes. With a playful representation of the Mount Pleasant aviation museum, the artwork celebrates the community, fostering a sense of pride and unity.
Mural size: 20.16x10 ft. Vinyl installation, created in Adobe Photoshop.
Client: Walmart | Location: Mount Pleasant,TX | Agency: Now Art, LA
The project was part of the Walmart Community Mural Program, a celebration of communities across America. Inspired by the community and together with every store manager, each mural reflects the local diversity and cultural references.
The mural had a short turnaround for each stage of the work, undergoing a round of revision with a swift deadline. With every revision, I was able to further develop my creative concept, allowing ideas to mature and creating vivid artwork that brings the brief to life.
PROCESS:
My illustration process starts with a rough sketch. I only went into details for the woman as I had to figure her character out before moving on to color. Next step was blocking out all the shapes and adding motifs to the composition.
