Nola & Chester
Hey Nola, I’ve been dreaming of splashing a city wall with some of your favorite plants—think a mural of a blooming cactus or a jungle vine wrapped around a concrete column, all in bright spray paint. What do you think?
That sounds delightfully bold, but I’m a bit shy about paint on brick. I love the idea of a cactus bloom or vines, though. Maybe we could sketch a design first, keep it soft and natural, then let the city’s own textures do the rest. It could be a quiet burst of green amid the concrete.
Sounds perfect! Let’s grab some charcoal and do a quick sketch, then we’ll layer it with watercolor‑like tones to keep it soft. The brick will give it that rough edge that makes the green pop—just a natural burst of life in the city jungle. I’ll bring the spray cans and we’ll make it a quiet, vibrant surprise.
That sounds lovely—charcoal sketches give the plants a gentle, almost sighing outline, and the watercolor tones will keep the green soft against the rough brick. I’ll keep my eye on the light, making sure each leaf catches a little brightness. When you bring the spray cans, just remember to let the colors breathe a bit; the city can hold its own wildness while we add a quiet, living splash. Let's do it.
