Motivational Murals

Berney, Sagunto & Sharpstein Schools

Motivational Murals started out as a project solely based on self promotion, however, as I began the project, I realized it could have value in something beyond myself. Having found three different schools as clients, I wanted to use this opportunity to inspire creativity in young people, especially with the decline in creative outlets in both public and private schools. With this goal in mind, I designed, digitized and painted three hand lettered murals of motivational quotes to inspire creativity for present and future students in all three of these schools.

Berney Elementary

One of the three murals I had the privilege of doing was for Berney Elementary in Walla Walla, Washington. After initial contact with the school I began collecting the preliminary information I would need to design a mural to reflect the school while still being able to complete my goal of creating something to motivate and inspire creativity. In talking with the principle, I learned that the main ideals of the school were to create a possessive, inclusive and collaborative environment for their students. From this conversation the school chose the quote “Together we can do Anything” to really emphasis these ideals to both their students and staff. The color palette was created from the school colors with the addition of a highlight of orange and grey.

Colegio Adventista de Sagunto

I created this mural for a high school located in Sagunto, Spain where I studied for six months. For this mural the client gave me full creative direction.

Sharpstein Elementary

I created this mural for Sharpstein Elementary located in Walla Walla, Washington where I worked closely with the principle to choose colors, quote and create a mural that overall would accurately represent what the school believes in.
