My sister, who is now volunteering with LOLA (Land O Lakes Art League, Land O Lakes, WI) - recently asked me if I would do a custom 'rendering' of what their future new LOLA building might look like. They wanted something whimsical - that reflected the 'look' of local buildings and the fact that this building would host dance, music and art classes. The watercolor above is the result of many hours of 'brain storming'!
LOLA's new 'rack card':
I painted this whimsical mural in the Fairy Tale Ballet Studio in Bucktown, Chicago.
The 'door' is a real door, that I painted to look as if it were the entrance to the castle.
A cute bunny rabbit and adorable squirrel, anchor the sides of the castle.
9 year old Rini's parents added a dance studio off her bedroom so that Rini could dance her feet silly! To make this addition perfect for a young girl or teenager, I used the designs on her bedding as 'inspiration'. I painted an arched entrance to her studio with contemporary designs and added lots of glitter - because a girl can never have too much bling!
Inside the studio, I painted a 'glittered' quote and sky with clouds and lovebirds.
In this dance studio (in a private residence in South suburbs of Chicago) I painted a whimsical audience, complete with trompe l'oeil draperies.
It's the perfect, fun mural in this dance studio, built in family's newly finished basement. The colors reflect the warm Tuscan colors in family room.
Note: I used very sparkly glitter on the 'chandelier' hanging in center of mural!
