Hi, I'm have to admit I'm not a professional muralist - but a local sculptor and as times are a bit slow, and I had such fun doing a mural for my boys, I thought I'd offer my services. If you like the style of the attached image, I'd be happy to work on a design with you.

My boys' mural was inspired my Rousseau's paintings and uses just 6 colours, that contrast with each other well, so it looks good in the dark as well. I always think of the bit in The Far Pavilions (have you ever read it? bit of a guilty pleasure from my teens) where Ashok talks about the jewel encrusted murals in the room he slept in as a child, and how he used to invent stories about the different animals etc.. I wanted to do something for my little ones to love and invent stories about as they lay in bed.
I could do something similar for an underwater theme if you are interested - it would be fun...
ps more about my sculpture work (which is quite different) is here:

But can reassure you that I am a professional artist and I know how to manage commissions.
