This mural painting project with\u00a0Joni Belaruski<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Del Riche<\/a>\u00a0was great fun.<\/p>\n

Paraphrasing from Joni’s blog:<\/p>\n

Joni was given\u00a0\u00a0a really fun commission from John Jones Framers that was a pleasure to work on from start to finish. John Jones is a prestigious framing company based in North London with clients including Guy Ritchie and Madonna, Hugh Grant, Damien Hirst and many more . To celebrate moving into their new premises, they wanted to hold a party in the top floor of their building, a huge open space with an expanse of white walls which Joni\u00a0was asked to create artwork on. The theme was loosely based around \u2018Victorian interiors\u2019, and everything was to be fairly simple and in black and white. Perfect for Joni’s\u00a0illustrative style! The time frame was very narrow with less than a week to paint these 12 ft walls with three more huge canvases thrown in for good measure. Joni\u00a0enlisted the help of myself\u00a0and Del Riche (http:\/\/www.delriche.net<\/a>).\u00a0After researching our images for a couple of days the three of us set to work drawing, projecting and painting. Here is a gallery of the work in progress, the party itself and the artists.<\/p>\n
