Artist paints striking mural for Ulverston pub

Customers at The Sun Inn in Ulverston will now be greeted with the sight of a spotted leopard, draped over a colourful disco ball and surrounded by large, verdant plants.

Emilia moved back to the Lakes at the end of last summer to start her next venture as a mural artist, painter and interior decorator after working as a freelance prop maker in Manchester.

“Usually my clients come to me wanting help with ideas and visual inspiration and I create design concepts from scratch for them,” Emilia said.

I combined these inspiration images in my style to create a design to fulfil their brief.”

Emilia said that this particular piece was so incredibly detailed that it took ten days to complete.

“With all of my murals I draw the design over a photo taken of where the mural is going to be. This way the client gets to see what it would look like before paint touches the wall,” she said.

“I can always see room for improvement in my own work but if my clients are happy, I’m happy. Overall I am very pleased with the outcome of this one.”
