Painting Murals

Learn How to Paint Murals

Turn any wall in your home into a masterpiece and have fun doing it! Murals can be painted on walls, ceilings, or other large permanent surfaces!

Dating back to prehistoric times, mural paintings can be found in caves and on the sides of cliffs, but the term didn't become famous until well-known artists such as Diego Rivera came onto the scene.

Today, murals can be painted in a variety of ways such as using oil or water based media. Mural styles can vary from abstract to trompe l'oeil (a French term for "fool" or "trick the eye"). The beauty of wall murals has also become more widely available with the use of poster paper to trace the image onto the surface of the wall.
