Apple tree mural hand-painted for children’s room, with names of the family painted on the branches
 

HAND-PAINTED APPLE TREE MURAL

I painted this tree mural in a beautiful big, light room in a Georgian house. The room was for a new baby girl and her two year old sister, and two older brothers were going to enjoy it too, so my brief was not to paint anything too girly. I painted a big apple tree with lots of small details at ground level for the children to discover. Around the room I also painted a fox, three squirrels, a hedgehog, butterflies, two birds, a snail and a ladybird! On the branches I painted the names of all the children in the family. Tree murals are really popular but I make sure never to paint the same tree twice, and I personalise the mural with family names wherever possible.
