One of the problems with some venues is the age of the children if the artwork is to cartoon babyish then the tweenies as they are known, to old for the baby areas and not old enough for the teenage areas do not want to participate so we have neutral artwork to compensate again all based out in a background colour with images as in the pictures and shapes not a lot of use for cartoon images this has been very successful for multiple ages from toddlers to teens, this also provides a relaxing atmosphere for parents to enjoy.

The Cappella jobs have been produced for a Danish based company and no preliminary drawings were produced, it was a walk around discussion as to what the theme would be and how much detail to be applied to each area, painted on the hoof, several times this has been the formula for this particular client with a lot of success it does not necessarily work for everyone, the walls were painted in white and then sprayed and painted background scenery was added working over that producing the cartoon images first painting them in a flat colour followed by an over spray to achieve the shadows and highlights, for added protection and to enhance the colours even more an emulsion glaze can be applied over the cartoon mural, although it protects against spills and dirty finger marks it will not stop deep scratches or knocks, the whole affect lights up a venue and makes it exciting for the children as well as an interesting environment for the parents to sit relax and enjoy a break with (food), you will know by experience it is not that pleasant hanging around waiting for the children in an area that has not been painted or worse still badly painted, it adds style comfort and excitement to the event and children can associate with the characters which will make you stand out from the other venues.
