European Vacation



I've never been to Europe, but Lara has....and she loved it so much, I'm going to paint a European mural in her room. She's picked out her favorite landmarks in London and Paris...The Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, The Arch de Triumph...Big Ben , and Buckingham Palace.

I've spent about four hours just trying to find decent photo reference....and I think I've printed out 35 pictures to work from. The landmarks are going to by hyper detailed, so I needed good, close photos...not that easy to find.

This is a photo of the west wall before starting to paint. The whole mural is going to be painted in sepia tones for an old world look.
