Preparation<\/h2>\n

Painting a palm tree mural is a long and complex process, and it is important to be properly prepared before engaging in it. The first step to take is to design the overall idea of the mural and the type of palm tree that should be depicted. One should take into account the size of the wall, the overall look of the room and the style of the mural desired. The second step is about selecting the right materials for the job.
\nThe wall should be properly cleaned, and priming and sealing should be done prior to beginning the painting process. Depending on the medium used for painting, one should select the appropriate canvases, tools, paints and brushes. One should also have all the adhesives and fixings close at hand when ready to begin painting.<\/p>\n

Drawing the Mural<\/h2>\n

When ready to draw the mural, one should also take into consideration the space of the wall while determining the placement and sizes of the palm tree and other elements. The drawing process might include the use of various pencils, rulers, freehand markers, paper and canvas. It is also important to ensure that all lines are straight and even, and that images are also accurately scaled.<\/p>\n

Painting the Mural<\/h2>\n

When ready to paint, it is advised to first use a flat paint brush to fill the surface of the wall. Afterward, one should prepare the desired colors and mix them one at a time. It is important to create the desired shades and tones by properly blending the colors. One can also thin down the paint with either linseed oil or turpentine to create different effects on the painting surface.
\nThe painting process should be done one small area at a time. Using a larger brush should first be done on the background of the mural, and then layers of paints should be added. Afterward, details can be added with smaller brushes, and also with the use of stencils. <\/p>\n
