Dash of Artistry Mural by Lianne Smith -- Dash of Artistry in Stone Mountain

This dynamic storefront mural wraps around the corner of [Studio Name], creating a visually engaging introduction to the space. The design is split across two walls, with the left side almost entirely in black. This section features a distinctive front door adorned with dots that evoke the image of falling sand. A white ring connects this side compositionally to the right side of the mural, creating a cohesive flow between the two areas. On the right side, the background transitions from a light teal at the top to a slightly desaturated purple at the bottom, achieved through a horizontal gradient. To soften the contrast between the two colors, large black circles are scattered across the gradient. The focal point of this side is the logo and text. The logo integrates the letters "D" and "A," where the "D" is depicted with a hand sprinkling white dots, reminiscent of the sand motif from the left side. These dots cascade into the framework of the letter "A," filling the negative space with a seamless flow. Adjacent to the logo, the text reads "Dash of Artistry," This clever design plays off the hand sprinkling dots, emphasizing the 'dash' in the studio's name. This mural was executed with indoor house paint, paint markers, and matte white primer. Without the aid of projection, I embraced the challenge of measuring and scaling my mock-up to accurately fit the wall’s dimensions. This meticulous process is one I’ve refined and rely on with every mural I create.
