Steps In Creating School Mascot Murals

By Christine Olson


Just imagine how bad your situation was before. From the time you wake up until you go to sleep, your parents were still pestering you about getting good grades for the sake of your life and all that other stuff. You probably already memorized every single word they said to you from morning until night.

As annoying as it could get, we still are pretty grateful to them for doing this. Without their constant nagging and bossing around, we cannot even hope to graduate from elementary school. Remember that without a degree, life gets harder. But remember that you still have time to enjoy creating school mascot murals.

It already is of common knowledge that expressing your own self through the ways of art is an incredibly great thing. You get the chance to express your creativity and show how you truly are through the work that you make. Despite all the seriousness, the main thing is to have fun throughout it all.

The very first thing that you must do is plan and list down every single detail which will be applied to your project. It totally is of absolute necessity to never forget the little things. These small and miniscule details actually are the ones to give life to your art. Without it, your outcome will seem lame.

After doing so, it also is pretty important to see to it that the measurements you take are extremely correct and accurate. A single size that is not measured right can actually destroy everything you worked so hard for. Surely, you would not want all those things to just go to waste because of one thing only.

We already mentioned number three before and that is to see where you actually wish to put this stuff. Since you have decided to work on a mural, an already set up space is necessary. No canvas or papers will be used for this one. The smoother surface you choose, the better image you can get from it.

Fourth is to paint everything in one color first. Place those different hues right after you make a base color of your surface. This way, it makes balancing and blending everything out way more messier than how it originally is supposed to be. Try something light like white or pastel colors for an easier handle.

Try painting from the background image and work your way into the front. Changing everything up again and again takes so much more time rather than not having to do it anymore. So before proceeding with your main picture, make sure that you already have your background done and completed already.

When everything else has been said and done, it all boils down to making sure that your work of art does not get erased over the course of time and other external elements and contributors. Make it have a longer life span by using a sealer as the guard or protection from these said elements.
