Commissoned Abstract Painting for Marriott Hotel - 22 feet by 5.5 feet!



My latest commisson request is to create 2 textured abstract paintings for one of Marriott's Hotels here in the U.S.

One of them is a diptych (2 piece painting), with each one measuring approx. 2.5 feet by 3.5 feet. The other painting, however, is a tad larger:
a VERY LARGE 22 feet wide, by 5.5 feet high. That's 120 square feet of painting!

If you want to know how much paint I'll be using, since these are textured paintings, I'll tell you right now -- a lot!

Now, the Marriott is one of my wife and my favorite hotels (especially the Courtyard brand), and has over 3,000 properties worldwide, so this is a great commission! The other plus is that their logo and brand color is crimson, which is one of my favorite colors!

I'll keep you posted with updates to the process, and maybe some pics as well!
