Oil Painting in a Hotel Lobby


I combined my two loves, hotels and art, to create this montage that is a translation of my oil painting into a hotel lobby. So in case you were wondering how my painting would look as a wallpaper, here's your chance to see it!

Also, my newfound obsession with the ginko leaf shows here. (Let's pretend it's their logo, so its overuse would be justified.) I converted the black tree in the painting to a silver and gold leaf tree sculpture. It forms the center of the waiting area that has red swivel chairs around it. I also used a gold leaf chair. Red rugs with the ginko leaf pattern define the seating.

The reception desk is also gold leaf with the ginko leaf print embossed. The wall curves to form the ceiling. More gold painted ginko leaves form the cove lighting here.

Next, I'll work with this reception desk's shape.
