This
is my personal mural portfolio. No ads - No gimics - No junk email
I am always looking for work and you can contact me directly from this site at glenn@adkinsart.com. Every mural is hand painted
with acrylic paint, brushes, rags and rollers or whatever
is handy. No Airbrush. Each mural is designed for a specific space, and a specific owner. Please forgive me for not using a cell phone and though I will not be available to answer the phone, you can leave a message at 772-219-3604 or email me. I work in the following locations: Lantana, Lake Worth, West
Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, North Palm, Jupiter, Juno
Beach, Stuart, Jensen Beach, Boynton Beach, Boca Raton and Port St. Lucie, Vero Beach, North Palm Beach, Florida.
THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
1. Any subject can be painted on smooth/textured walls or canvas.
2. You can see how a mural would look on your walls before deciding.
3. No charges for a visit and no pressure to make
a sale.
4. If you don't like my submission, I use it later.
5. You can also order a painting on canvas of any subject, in any size.
6. I will not copy another mural.
MY SCHEDULING
You will notice by going to my Work Schedule page that I estimate the total time to job completion of all possible projects. It does not mean that I am booked during that time. It means that I have visited a set number of clients and if they all agree to use my idea then the calendar is a viable projection.
THE START OF A MURAL
You could tell me what you want regarding subject
and location and I take a photo of the spot. Within 2 weeks I submit a preliminary idea at no cost, which
can be accepted or rejected by you. The preliminary idea is not the final word, it is a starting point. Some changes will occur. The real trick is in the execution
of that idea. There are many variables that influence the outcome of a mural like lighting quirks, textures, irregular surfaces, harsh shadows, size and many proportunal adjustments. I adjust to these situations on the fly.
WHAT I DO BEST
My interest is in the construction of a convincing "alternate
reality" built upon sound lighting, color and many painting techniques. None of my landscapes are copied from
photos, however I do use photos as research. I actually paint
all my landscapes from my mind by using a certain visual logic
that comes from observation. I pace back and forth slowly
building an imagined view with just the right amount of light,
shade, hue, intensity and a touch of painterly luck. People
and objects are sketched by hand using photos as a study,
but the challenge with placing objects in any landscape is
using the correct light and shadow convincingly.

Taverna into Ancient Greece. You dine across from the Acropolis,

Regarding
children's murals:
I
love kids. If you are interested in giving me a challenge and not purely decorative patterns,
I'm in. It is my belief that a child's mind is stimulated with full color and little girls can become scientists or engineers. Little boys don't need to be surrounded by sports, cartoons or blue. The whole universe is open to them. So why start their lives off with mundane choices? I love children and would love to paint a mural that your child can grow into. It doesn't matter what color your room is, the full color mural will fit anywhere. Every window in your house is a portal to the full color reality which is "the great outdoors". I
think the link below has at least 4 children's murals.
