American Truck & Rail Mural Pt. 1

acrylic paint

American Truck and Rail Audits is a local business in North Little Rock. They have been a blessing to me and my husband, Troy, who’s worked there for over a decade. When they asked if I’d be interested in painting a mural to freshen up their space, I was more than happy to do so.

This one took a lot of research as machinery and vehicles are not areas I am well versed in, and I ended up taking a lot of inspiration from vintage railroad posters and advertisements. I’m very happy with how the final design came out, especially the smaller details of incorporating the company's logo on the truck and the year they were founded on the train. In total, the mural took me five weeks to complete. It was fun, it was challenging, and I learned a lot throughout the process.

This is actually the first mural of a two-mural project. Check out the second mural here.
