New video release for our Wynwood Smoke and Lounge mural

Wynwood Flamingo Mural Color Dreamers

We have been digging through our video vault of past projects and we have come across some of the videos our showcasing our process for our flamingo and chimp mural that we created for Wynwood Smoke Lounge. Located in Miami’s thriving arts district known as Wynwood, we completed this mural back in October 2017. The lounge has had a lot of tourist traffic since its opening and we are excited to share our work and art with the local and international community.

As usual we start our process with mixing our colors from primary red, blue and yellow with splashes of black and white. For this particular project we created a series of geometric patterns with a color scheme that fits the interior design. The patterns where created using taped forms. The artist, Amir Shakir then painted the chimp aka “Slick Chimp” and the flamingos who smoke a hookah in the lounge area.

We had a bast on this one and working with the clients ideas and input really made the outcome impressive. Every mural is unique and specific to the goals and environment. We take care in making sure that the surface is properly prepared, that the art relates to the clients needs and that the message is clearly communicated. As artists, we feel that the key to great art is is leaving a lasting impression. We ensure that the mural art theme relates to the functions and customers of the shop and lounge. Many visitors to Wynwood have tagged us in all their selfie shots with the murals and we are able to see how people interact with the art in the space. It is a true blessing and joy to work in a field that we love and enjoy. Our clients are always very happy with the result and we maintain lasting friendships from the entire process.

New video of our mural time-lapse in Wynwood for Mana building

Wynwood Walls Color Dreamers Mural Aerial

Wynwood Walls Mural Time-lapse with The Color Dreamers

Check out our latest time-lapse video of our Mural in Wynwood Miami of supermodels Raquel Riley Thomas and Randi Dorsey.  This mural scales over 40′ feet high and 38′ and was created using acrylic paint. The entire process took over 3 weeks to complete using an aerial lift. The mural was unveiled in May 2018.

We used the height of the wall to give the illusion of a large open window on the wall that opens up to the sky. We created a linen texture with smokey hues of purple. We added the Florida Panther as a symbol of strength and courage and to pay homage to the beautiful wild species that is a beacon of Florida’s nature. The process was amazing and the final result has created a tourist attraction at the Wynwood walls. We are ever grateful for the experience and opportunity to continue to push our art to new levels.

We invite the community to visit the mural located at the Wynwood Walls 524 NW 26 ST in Miami’s Wynwood Arts District. As we continue to create new works in progress across the nation we hope that you will continue to follow us through our journey. We are excited to share our work with the world and provide inspiration to communities and cities as they develop their art districts. This is our largest mural to date.
