🏰 Rapunzel Mural I painted on a wall in a villa in Salobreña ~ Spain 🇪🇸

[littlebee4]

Hi all 👋🏻

I want to share today with you, one of the murals I #painted on the walls of a villa in Salobreña, Granada Province ~ Spain 🇪🇸 😊 this time it’s Rapunzel… but slightly different 😉 if you notice it. It was painted in a round tower 🏰 and the building looked like a castle from afar.

Today’s selection will be of 12 photographs that are taken with my old iPhone and #Canon. 😎

I started this mural in January 2016, sadly… I only have a few photos from it. One with me painting 😎🎨 just before a change and some of the end result.
No steps of the painting progress 🎨 this time I’m afraid.
But do enjoy the extra photographs of the #surroundings where this building is located in, and where I stayed while painting the murals… one of the perks that comes with the job 🤩😎

Here you see me painting the shadow of the hair of #RAPUNZEL. I hope you all know this #fairytale?

photograph taken of me by Reggie Gambier, a friend

The FAIRYTALE:
The Princess that is locked in a tower and hangs her hair out of the window for the prince to climb up… in short hehehe 🤭

I painted this for a client/ friend who wanted a Rapunzel in the tower room… with some modifications of course.

I painted more murals in the few weeks there and had these views:

View from the terrace towards the left side of the coast. 🥰

One of the days, I captured these sun beams ☀️😎
Have a look at how magical they were.

You see also some fish breeding grounds in the water. The rings you see… 🐟🐟🐟

The sky was so amazing that moment.

But let’s not divert to much and show you more from the mural/ painting I painted 🎨

Again a closer up of me painting with a brush in the same moment taken by Reggie:

Here the hair was straight and I was almost finished.
But the client had to think about it. He decided to go with curly more wavey hairs…

So I changed the hairs of Rapunzel slightly.

This is the end result. 😎🎨🎨🎨
( if you look closely, the client still needed to paint the rest of the walls a new colour)

The candle on the wall and the holder are painted too if you didn’t see that. 🤩

I wanted to add the feel of a castle tower… but very subtle.

Here a close up of the candle 🕯 and holder… and the stones of the wall.

Don’t have better photographs I’m afraid, but I think you can see enough structures.

Another capture of the end result. 😊 Hope you like it? Rapunzel as you could see is life size. Watching out of the window for her #PRINCE 🤴🏻

And with this sunset seen from the villa one of the evenings…

… I say: that’s all for today, join me in my next posts for more #adventures, #stories and #photographs 😎👋🏻 Even some #artworks once in a while will come by 🎨
Thank you so much for looking, and reading. And if you liked my post, an upvote or re-blog is always welcome 🙏🏻

Have a great day all 😎👋🏻

Hello, it is impressive how realistic the chandelier looks. I would not have found out that it is painted. The seascapes are beautiful and you photographed them very well.
Thanks @littlebee4 for sharing 🙂 .

[littlebee4]

Thank you so much @elentogether 👋🏻😊 good I did mention about the chandelier than 😉
The views there… were amazing. Loved staying there while painting.
You are welcome, happy to share my art too 😎
Have a great day today ☀️

Wow! First time to see your own artwork. Impessive work you did there. 👏👏👏 this talent is so worthy to share. Thank you for sharing. Love it!

[littlebee4]

Thank you so much @bluepark 😊😎 that’s kind of you.
Really? You haven’t seen any of my art yet.
That’s a shame I shared quite some bit already in the time I am here. Not just my murals. Also some paintings, drawings and airbrush work. I work normally very realistic, like These snails you can see here!
Or this portrait: Of a woman you find here!
I will share some more art going forward. Thank you my friend 🤗🤗🥰🥰
Have a wonderful weekend!

!LADY

[bluepark]

Just checked your artworks. My jaw dropped! 😮😮😮 I could not differentiate a photograph from the painting. at first glance I would probably think its photo. 😁 It's a shame indeed on my part that I wasn't able to checked these artworks of yours. Just amazing!

[littlebee4]

Thank you sooo much for your kind words @bluepark 🤩🥰 means a lot to me. Thanks 🙏🏻
Will post more in the future… we move next month to a new country. After that I set up my studio again to create new work 😉… can’t wait 🤓🎨
No worries… 😁
Happy day to you 🥰

[bluepark]

That's exciting to hear. New country, new environment, new experience. Yay! God luck to this new endeavor. Loking forward to to more of your wonderful artwork.
Have a beautiful weekend

[littlebee4]

Thank you so much @bluepark 😊👋🏻
Very exciting… 🎉🎉
Have a beautiful weekend too!

So pretty, I like how you've positioned her hair just below the window as though her hair got intentionally caught. It's positive, graceful, and fun all at the same time.

[littlebee4]

Thank you so much @discoveringarni 😊🥰 that’s nice to hear.
It was so much fun to paint her.
Have a wonderful day further 👋🏻☀️

[stefano.massari]

Beautiful decoration! I too would like to have a wall in a house with a similar design

[littlebee4]

Thank you so much @stefano.massari 😊😎
Get some paint and brushes 😉🎨 and have fun… imagination has no limit to paint something on your house’s walls. If you need (virtual) help let me know…

[fantagira]

Your Rapuzel is truly mesmerising! You sure were working in some beautiful surrounding too 💙

[littlebee4]

Thank you so much @fantagira 👋🏻😊 much appreciated!
So loved the times I was there and just painted walls. It was a very inspirational area.
Have a wonderful weekend 👋🏻🥰

[fantagira]

I can only imagine! Hopefully more work like this for you in the future. Have a great weekend too 💙

[littlebee4]

Thank you so much, will do…
Btw. I just posted 2 links to some older art from me to Bluepark ‘s comment on my post. If you want to check out some realistic painting and drawing… the way I normally create art 😉
Thanks a lot @fantagira 👋🏻☀️

[fantagira]

Thank you. I checked them out and they’re truly beautiful and very realistic indeed. I love the snails 💙

[littlebee4]

Thanks for checking them out 🥰 I love painting realistic.
Have the most wonderful weekend 👋🏻☀️

[sketch.and.jam]

Love that shadow depth, did you use the airbrush for that part?

[littlebee4]

The shadow parts are done with my airbrush, everything else I did with normal brushes.
Thanks @sketch.and.jam 😊😎 it was such a cool piece to create.

[protokkol]

This is extremely beautiful i love how you applied the shadows and made it look virtually real like it's an illusion of 3D

[littlebee4]

Thank you so much @protokkol 😊😎 I love adding 3D features in my art. Especially while doing murals. My normal paintings are realistic, so this is another way for me to express a looser style.
Have an awesome day further my friend 👋🏻🎨

[lileisabel]

Friend @littlebee4 how beautiful, you have prodigious hands , good morning.❤️

[littlebee4]

Thank you so much dear @lileisabel 😊🥰 good morning to you 👋🏻☀️

That looks very nice. I actually thought that the candle and holder were real. It looks very realistic. Nice work 👌

[dandays]

I had to zoom in too.

[littlebee4]

Thank you so much @leaky20 😊😎 I know most think it is real. So I thought let’s mention it.
Thanks 👋🏻 Happy Thursday.

[septymahija]

Haha same, you are an amazing artist, now the candel and the holder still are real to me

[littlebee4]

Thank you so much @septymahija 😊😎🥰 hahaha 🤣 it’s great all think it is real 🕯
Have an awesome day further 🤗

[gunnarheilmann]

That is soo cool!

[littlebee4]

Thanks so much @gunnarheilmann 👋🏻😊 happy you like the post.

[gunnarheilmann]

I like the way the hair goes out the window 😁

[littlebee4]

Thanks, that was the plan. 😎 I adjusted the idea to the room… window and wall. So no plan really. It did work out well.

[jlufer]

Hello dear friend @littlebee4 good afternoon
I appreciate that you let us know your beautiful work, you are very talented
Beautiful sunset shots. that you enjoy it a lot

[littlebee4]

Hello dear friend @jlufer good day to you 👋🏻😊
Thank you so much for checking out my painting and your lovely comment. Much appreciated!
Have a wonderful day today 👋🏻☀️

[coquicoin]

I loved the story of Rapunzel when I was a child. The mural is beautiful, and the views you had while painting it was gorgeous. 😎

[littlebee4]

Yes, I think most of us know the story. Bringing back childhood memories 😊
Thank you so much @coquicoin 😎 I loved creating this one. And the views… such a bonus 🥰
Have an amazing Friday!

Good morning 👋🏻☀️ When you wake up.

[consciouscat]

This is amazing, @littlebee4 😄 I love seeing people's hidden talents! Especially when they can do things I can't do!

[littlebee4]

Thank you so much @consciouscat 😊🥰 much appreciated!
It’s not a hidden talent though, it’s my main thing I do actually. Being an artist.
Have posted some other works before but not regularly. Should do more I think 😉
Hope after our move next month to set up a studio soon again. 🤞🏻🍀
Have an awesome weekend! Big hug 🤗

[consciouscat]

Yes to sharing more of these! !LUV

Your welcome i was telling her about your art i am trying to encourage her to Hive shes an artist too she does commission art for people but shes really just getting started.

Shes a young mum so she struggles to balance things sometimes.
I managed to encourage her to create an account but she has not used it much.
@shimbodoesart i am hoping if i keep telling her about others she will realise this is a good place to post her work.

Have the best weekend

[littlebee4]

Thank you @benthomaswwd, that’s wonderful 😊😎
I can understand the balance bit though. I’m an artist and do photography next to it.
I think hive is a good place to get her art out. And get to know more people from around the world. Who knows what comes from it. She doesn’t need to post every day, or be here. As long as one engages all is ok. One can grow…

I’m not a year here yet, but I truly love it @shimbodoesart 😊😎 check Hive out and start talking to other artists here. Many disciplines can be found and every art form will find a good spot. I noticed step by steps how you create a work are great.
The communities are so supportive.
Give it a try 🤓😉
