The Red Wizard posing with a mural in Buffalo, NY
In this post, I share my collage mural-making process. The style and feel of a collage mural is very dependent on the feel of the source material it is made from. I created a very colorful and electric scene for the family room in my home. Any vibe or theme you can think of is possible when making a collage mural. So long as you have a vision for what type of colors and images you want, anything is possible. Whether it is a baby’s nursery or a barbershop. Also, a collage mural foesn’t have to be one big piece, you can create smaller elements to accent a room. To learn more about my process, please watch the YouTube video below:
Choosing the material you print on is also important. I print my collage murals on UV proof matte vinyl. It is weather-resistant can even be installed outside! You have probably seen cars or trucks that are “wrapped” with a promotional image. This is a similar material. So if this stuff can last on a bakery truck in Buffalo, it will last forever in your home or for several years outside your storefront. Think of it is a massive bumper sticker.
