This took place in a newly-constructed high school practice field. The weight room mural was our largest at this location, measuring 75 feet long and 25 feet high. Murals of this size can easily present access challenges. We used scaffolding and a mechanical lift in order to access the entire surface. Our work occurred simultaneously with construction that was taking place throughout the school. There were some late architectural changes to the planned image after the initial rendering—the background color became a light gray and the size of the center paw was reduced. We adapted and conquered. It was also a fun task to accomplish the red-to-white color fade within the strength & conditioning lettering on the masonry surface but, as usual, Paul never ceases to amaze—his expertise made it happen! We worked closely with the general contractor to minimize disruption, ours and theirs, to ensure a quality and timely product. This image is designed to energize student athletes as they condition themselves for competition.
The 2nd of 4 murals was painted at the indoor practice field 2nd floor landing. The 3rd mural was a text mural with the state of Texas in the entrance hallway, and the final mural was a paw logo on the 2nd floor hallway. All 4 murals were painted inside the newly constructed indoor practice field building.
