I just finished my first mural for the bunkroom in our house. The paints don't show well but are metallic paints. They glow and change as the light changes or as you walk by. You can see it glow a little at the top by the window. These paints can be purchased at a lot of paint stores. I used a combination of Martha Steward metallic paints and Modern Master Metallic Paints. The colors are copper flash, gold, medallion, flash blue, antique bronze and antique copper. I highlighted the background with gold flash and blue flash. It is amazing what these colors do. After painting the horse I used a swiriling motion to use the same colors to creat the look of dust.The bunkbeds in the room have throw pillows with horses in similar colors. I added a couple stuffed horses for kids who come to visit. A great way to add color and life to a dull room.
