4 Ways Murals Are Making A Comeback

I won't necessarily call it a comeback...they've been here for years!

Sharing photos with friends and family has become the norm. We see a beautiful sunset or visit an interesting location and we want to share. Bringing to the forefront the backdrop of murals. So let's quickly discuss four ways wall murals are making a "comeback" into our lives. 
Murals as Art

Brining a canvas to life is the driving forces of most artists. Some artists work with a bigger canvas than others. Murals have provided the opportunity for creative and talented artists to showcase their work on a grander stage.
Places like Winter Street Studio in Houston, TX have designed a mural sketchbook. Providing a safe haven for murals to be created and displayed. Leaving the imagination as the limit for what's next on the mural scene.


Murals as Marketing

Product placement and location tags have allowed small businesses an opportunity to be discovered through murals. For example, a fashion blogger might post a picture in front of a mural with the next outfit discussed on their blog. Then that pictures gets tagged with the location which happens to be a cute clothing boutique. Presto! Mural marketing magic!
(So if you love a shop or restaurant that hosts a mural, be sure to tag them because that is an excellent way to support small businesses; while giving street creds to the artist.)
 

 Murals as Media

Having the right backdrop can set the tone for your photo or video. When creating media for your own posts you want a backdrop that sets the right mood. Are you looking for something fun, thought provoking, or simply surreal? Find the backdrop that sends the right message; add the right medium of media and Strike That Pose!

Many communities are adopting a mural identity. Some are revitalizing old buildings and giving a breath of life into a forgotten piece of history. Others are blending a combination of previously discussed uses for a trendy, up beat feeling to blend the past and the future.
