To create the mural paint a 30cm strip of Resene Sea Fog through the mid section of the wall. Cut a wave symmetrical curved semicircle from a piece of cardboard to use as a stencil. Once the paint is dry, draw the bottom line of waves with your stencil. Paint Resene Dauntless on the underside of this line and fill in to the floor with a roller. Repeat this process on top by drawing another stencilled wave line. Paint the upperside of this line with Resene Morning Glory and then roll the remainder of the wall upward.
