" Hi, my name is Tamal Bhattacharya and I am speaking on behalf of Expert Village. My subject today is Terracotta Murals. Where you install a mural is most important, as it alters the look of architecture and environment. Terracotta murals can be installed inside or outside. As an artist you should be very creative, but keep in mind that the installation depends upon the surroundings. For instance, if it is an indoor work you have to chose the right spot to create a space that is eye catching and very pleasant. An indoor mural could be created in an office building, a passenger room, or theater hall. If you were to create a mural for a restaurant you could have a scene related to food, such as oval featuring elements of that business. Examples would be dishes or food. If you are creating an outdoor mural or works for a garden you could use elements found in nature such as animals. Terracotta faces of birds lend to the garden environment. Thank you."
