Illustrated Window Murals in collaboration with Hampshire Cultural Trust

I was delighted to be commissioned by Hampshire Cultural Trust to design and illustrate a 10- window arts trail across Gosport High street. I took inspiration from the maritime history of the town to design colourful underwater motifs that worked across 10 different shaped windows, in each of the window murals I included a small vintage diver for members of the public to find as they enjoyed the trail along the high street.

After the initial designs and mockups were approved by each of the business’s, I set about installing their maritime murals using posca paint pens to illustrate the inside of the windows which protected the designs from any bad weather and allowed the murals to be installed 2 weeks before the high street arts event to help engage the public in the high street.

Business included Leaders, Santander, Ultilta, RSPCA, Gosport museum and Library, and then independents such as the Barbershop and Tattoo parlour. Throughout the installation process, I was engaging with members of the public to chat to them about the murals and arts event with hugely positive feedback on the colourful designs.

Videos can be viewed on my Instagram reels where I shared the process of installation across the week.
