Compass Room
This Project was for MCCS at Camp Pendleton Marine Corp Base in Oceanside, California.
The theme is "The Compass Room" and is a meeting room for the U.S. Navy. (And for other functions)
The mural themes are nautical and of ANTIQUE HISTORIC MAPS with a large OLD-WORLD COMPASS as the focal point.
MCCS wanted the mural painted first and then distressed and white-washed out to become very soft and subtle and to act as a soft backdrop.
Here it is after white-washing on the main wall

After white-washing second wall. Most of this wall is so soft so as to not be visible unless you are standing next to it in the room.
