OUR MISSION: Visual arts practices expanded from mural making on architectural walls, to storytelling on digital walls and remains open to working with community for communities.
Opportunities exist for collaborative media works, building upon existing (founding) creative media for education and associated peace craft practices.
Music and visual media hold prospects in sound and vision (as art for/with music), in creative entertainment.
Every picture tells a story.
Our ‘EPIC’ mnemonic stands for Emotional, Physical, Intellectual, Creative, all of which have degrees of application in any story. Making Murals Limited ventures further into new space, with opportunities for communites to collaborate with pre-determined plus unique branches of storylines.
Works created to date, under nominal license with BNC GIFTS ®, echo our founding mission of art ‘for and by communities’ now in ‘EPIC’ journeys of feelings and experience.
Time Is ART
OUR HISTORY: Making Murals was established by Isabella Demetriou (nee Wesoly), in 1997, in a bid to promote art in the community and as part of her undergraduate studies at Thames Valley University (now called University of West London). Her first graduate commission was the Worton Road Summer project in Isleworth, though her first (founding) project was the 'World Theme' mural of 1986 at the Oak Tree Community Centre (in South Acton, London). This founding project emerged after she had painted a mural on her bedroom wall, in the now demolished tower block 'Barrie House'), supported with paint from Dulux and initiated by Martin Frost (manager at the Oak Tree Community Centre).
Isabella's visual arts practices, have included young and old alike, all of which are included in the menu (under 'Our Projects').
Art tutoring was also conducted at St. Vincent's school, London, with pupils aged 9-11 yrs. This included showing pupils how to make a colour wheel, re-create images from 'Old Masters' and motivating them to mix/match the colours in the original before painting the drafted images.
The paintings produced with St. Vincent's pupils were (apprarently) used in the background of scenes from 'The Vicar of Dibley' TV series, with Dawn French.
