What you need

  • Pencil
  • Paint
  • A reference image (optional)

How to achieve a mountain mural

  1. Draw a pencil sketch of the mountains. You may refer to an image online for inspiration.
  2. Start with painting the mountain at the bottom first.
  3. Thereafter, you can choose to either paint the next mountain free-hand or follow your pencil sketch.

The key to this feature wall design is to choose shades of colours that would complement each other. For example, in this mountain mural, Pam chose to use shades of blue, grey and white.
