NHS mural by RachelFirth in Basingstoke

This mural was created as a completely freehand, play-it-by-ear design commissioned by the NHS. Using a combination of interior paint and acrylics, the piece draws inspiration from linear foliage and bold, flat color blocking. Naive and playful shapes were employed to craft a vibrant and engaging pathway, leading from the waiting room to the children’s department. Departing from traditional painted characters often found in hospitals, this mural provides a fresh and cheerful alternative, brightening the hallways and bringing joy to patients and staff alike.
