This mural painting is designed for decorating the stair pathway of the entrance. The wall has a rough mural texture and the owner decide to put an attraction instead of bare wall.
The painting was designed to fit the uneven surfaces and irregular shape of the stairs. The idea motif is to adopt the Indian culture and fits the curry and naan indian cuisine.
Research of ideas and images are important, the first impression is the look of exotic panoramic Indian views, blue skies, forest, waterfalls and added with an antique castle. By emphasizing the culture, an Indian lady dancing with its native costume is laid out and painted facing the main entrance.
The main figures are the caravan of Indian king and the two officers riding on the big black elephant decorated with golden accessories and colorful fabrics. The caravan was headed by the three guards with a colorful costume of turbans, handed with spears and fan that usher the path of promenade. The mural site and restaurant is located at Jean Talon, Montreal, Quebec.
