LaHa-PT Process Pics

 Well. I got so excite starting this mural, that I forgot to get some pictures earlier than this.  Anyway, this one was considerably bigger than the Frisco Chalkboard so i was experimenting alot with this.  I found my horizon line and tapped it off.  I then drew in most of it with vine charcoal and sealed it.  Then painted the sky and clouds in.f

 Flat Clouds...

 Finished clouds...


 Staring in on the grass and bluebonnet patch.




 Bluebonnets and starting the horses and lazy longhorn.



Layering dirt and grass.





 My buddy Blayne to show some scale.
 Longhorns filling out.





 My favorite Longhorn.

 Cattle all about done.







 And its done! 







  And it's framed!

La Hacienda Ranch-Frisco Chalkboard Mural

 

Pretty difficult to get a good picture of this completed.  There's a window to the left there that created a lot of glare problems.  This is about 6ft x 13ft and done with chalk pastels.
