“As a designer, I’m always looking for the right people who can not only fulfill the vision of the design, but is also easy to collaborate with. Joan is exactly both of those. Communication was easy and effective from the beginning and she and I worked together to get the appropriate look. Ultimately we were looking for a fun and vibrant hand painted mural and she delivered. Joan is a “go to” for beautiful artistic work - can’t wait for the next project! Austin Gauley, Plan B Group”
Murals for The Keeper Restaurant
The Keeper, a seafood gastro-pub in Plano, Texas wanted mural features in the restrooms that would continue the airy, coastal vibe that defines their decor. Real tropical palms are a key feature throughout the restaurant, so the designer wanted to mirror that look in specific areas of the men's and women's restrooms.
These were my original mock-up sketches, based on my conversation with the designer for the project.
After considering cost and style issues, these are the final mock-up sketches for the murals.
