Back in the beginning of August ’16, I finished this one in 30 seconds… (apparently). Thanks go to UC Irvine in Orange County CA for the video.
Gym graphics were the project at hand recently – this time, all four interior walls of this gym at Claremont High School in Los Angeles County, CA. Our design included shadowy wolves staring down this school’s sports competition!
First, photos of the finished product. Then, some progress photos below.
This old gym had existing graphics that were painted around 2007. These photos show how the old graphics began disappearing under new paint:
Next: the focal point, which I ended up calling “Wolf Hill”:
Note the conduits / ducts that were unavoidable. My job is to make them disappear! Painting over these with care to continue the lines of the surrounding graphics requires an enormous amount of extra work to do, but the result is they “disappear” in the final product.
It started, as always, with a design drawing (below). It ended with more than 15 gallons of paint applied with much care to the school gym walls. Everyone was happy to see the final product – another successful gym graphics school pride project!
Got to spend a pleasant afternoon working on this wall graphic yesterday. Danza del Sol Winery, in Temecula wine country (near San Diego CA) built a new barrel room and event facility. Big City was asked to paint themed graphics on the subtly faux aged finish background, here is the result:

This photo gives a view of the pleasant environment I got to work in:
