It has been a few weeks now since we actually stroked a paintbrush on a large wall, but it won't be long now before we will begin laying out what we have been calling the Godzilla Mural. We're not actually painting Godzilla. I just gave it this title because this mural will be the largest mural we've ever painted on a single wall and possibly the largest mural in Utah, if not this side of the Mississippi. I estimate painting this mural will take about five to six months approximately, so we will be working on the mural portion of the Novatek art project to the end of the year. After that, we plan to create 11 paintings for 9 offices and 3 conference rooms.
Keep an eye on this blog ad be sure to bookmark it, because in about two to three weeks, we will probably start painting on the big wall!

ELK CLOSE UP
I'm not really a wildlife painter, yet I feel pretty good about how this bull elk turned out.

Squaw Peak (the one with the red scrub oak trees on it's slopes) is mosly in shadow, but with a sliver of light at the top.

THis looks so real, it's like you can walk right through it! Pick any door.
