Urban Art
#1
Hello,

In many cases, a mural is commissioned by a government or institution, because it represents a costly endeavor. For this reason, this type of art is often found in places like schools, government buildings, and on the outside of buildings in urban areas. Murals and the people who create them often become well known, due to the large scale and themes depicted. Most muralists produce artwork in multiple media, demonstrating a remarkable range of skills. Classically, a mural is applied directly to a prepared surface such as a fresco. Fresco like that used in the Sistine Chapel is a wet plaster to which paints are added. As the paints dry, they fade slightly, but also lock into the plaster, making them longer lasting and less likely to flake or peel. Usually, a team of artists works together under the supervision of a master artist, who keeps the plans for the overall design and directs individual team members as they work on specific projects.

Thanks,
