French Residence

Towson, MD

2011

This farm inspired mural was actually a surprise gift from my friend Greg French to his wife on their anniversary.  They own two pet goats and some chickens which they keep in this shed/enclosure near their driveway in the side of their front yard.  His wife grew up on a farm and always loved keeping animals.

The mural includes a horse peeking out of a trompe l'oeil barn door and a vintage Fresh Eggs sign on the door.  I also applied a wash to the wood made to look like aged boards and painted the trim a Colonial Red to match their existing garage. 

Sharing a workspace with a pair of curious goats was an interesting challenge.
