Mural

I am working on a new art piece, it is a mural on a wall at my parents house. I decided to use the same colour that I used in one of the other pieces, the gold one,  the HARAKAT and all the other diacritics (marks) are done with Prussian blue and Cobalt. I chose the Kofic script as I mentioned before the Kofic script used to be painted on walls as murals.

Step 1- I primed the wall with 5 layers (white paint with wall paste)

Step 2- Sketching out the words, chose the font from my surface and printed out the words and copied them on the wall using tracing paper.

Step 3- Started painting the letters

more progress has been made over these two weeks, I am satisfied with the result but still I feel that it needs more Islamic designs, I like the colour choice but I still need to refine all the writing and to work on the background.

I refined all the writing and added some designs
