Sara L Smith Fine Art, Murals, Faux

Sara collaborated on a very special project of ours, where she was tasked to create a life size mural of a 'family' of bears on the walls of a children's playroom; she executed brilliantly. Sara did a great job working up several initial renderings for the vision, and then successfully figured out how best to lay it out over multiple walls. The mural is perfectly balanced and she dialed in the exact look myself, the designer, and the Owner were all hoping for with the bears... we didn't want them too scary, nor too cartoonish(!). Sara took what we all had bouncing around in our heads and put it on paper in a way we could really get it. She then worked through multiple iterations before starting actual work on the walls. The installation took place towards the tail end of a new construction project, so she was working at the site, right along with the rest of the crew. She was a great fit, and was a welcomed, positive, creative spirit on the job-site. She was opened to constructive feedback and revisions, primarily driven by her own passion for creating the best finished product. Sara's initiative, creativity, communicative and collaborative approach, all coupled with her innate artistic abilities made for a very successful installation and left us wanting to use her again on our next project!
