3D Anamorphic WrapAround Mural 'Sweet Strands' CBD Dispensary NYC by Art for After Hours

I’ve spent the past few weeks painting murals for a soon to open CBD dispensary in Queens, NYC. I first painted the first photo mural as a 3D/anamorphic signature mural for the client. She loved it so much, she asked me to come back and paint a wrap around “weed jungle” on the remaining walls, with a large brightly colored bud on one wall. I also painted the exterior facade banner with her logo and products. 


It was a very fun and creative project, with lots of latitude with my designs. However, it was cold, especially painting outside! I finished work on Dec. 23rd. 





Thanks to Wendy for the exterior assistance of moving the scaffolding and keeping me safe on an inclined street. 





I am now working on an animated AR (augmented reality) component using the painted art, which my client is thrilled about and can use in her marketing! 





This client has the brightest and most creative, original CBD dispensary in NYC!

Chalk Art with Still and Animated Augmented Reality (Live)

Yesterday, Wendy and I went out to one of our favorite testing places for Art for After Hours concepts using 3D street paintings or chalk art with animated models of our creation to see the effects live.

 

This is an extended video showing a number of locations displaying concepts as they progress…

As always, we would like to hear from those who can imagine an installation with hand drawn (or digital printed) art on pavement walls, both for an immersive experience with traditional art and emerging technologies. Contact us with the form below. Thanks.

Digital design with our red rhino - fully code based off our hand drawn painted mural. Translatable to hand drawn pavement art in many variotions and concepts.

 

Starting from a hand painted artwork, concept expanded to present as a two panel anamorphic illusion. Added animated waterfall and figures for the 4D augmented reality effect which allows attendees to interact with the art that can be digitally printed with AR overlaid and viewable through our screen to share with your video social media.

4D Chalk Art Installations using 3D modeling, Animation with Augmented Reality

Over the winter, we have been working on interesting ways to blend chalk art (streetpainting), 3d modeling, animation, using augmented reality bringing traditional hand drawn or painted art and emerging technologies to our work.

We find these and expanding possibilities exciting as artists and to share with our clients. These are a few of the items we are working with along these lines.

Talk to us for creating a 4D project with hand drawn or digital art for printing, 3D modeling, still and animated scenes using augmented reality for your live/virtual event.

Creating digital installations using our 3D models and digital art as anamorphic illusions on ground and plane surfaces for a total illusion usable on a 3D curved surface at a convention or tradeshow booth.

Ground art can either be hand drawn or realized as digital art on vinyl substrate printed by your desired printer.

Example of hand drawn chalk over painted base coupled with still (art work in back) and animated bees colored in the colors of Ukraine for a special festival project in 2022.
