When we started brainstorming for the shop decor, we knew that we would love to collaborate with a local artist for a wall mural but we had no idea who to approach! One day as we were surfing Culturepush, we chanced upon the adorably awesome work of April. So we sent her an email with eager anticipation for any collaboration possibility!
She agreed and she also chipped in another talented friend of hers, Siew who drew the cool collage designs accompanying Miss Chalky.
This was their initial sketch on paper before they sized it up 4 times bigger.
Working really hard with no air-con was a really challenging process!
And we added the surprise in the fitting room with Miss Chalky sitting on a mushroom.
And I came into the picture to help ink the parts black. Siew ticked the parts to be black and I am known as the "inker".
Here is April with her new cropped bob and looking great:) She is fixing the clouds with velvet ribbons for a 3-D effect!
And after 3 and a half days of hard work, many black markers and paints. bubble milk teas and strings of laughter. The wall mural is completed and I just want to Thank April and Siew for their talented input and all the hard work! You guys made the shop more beautiful than I can ever imagine!
