SALON MULTI-WALL: EMPOWER & GROWTH
A comprehensive multi-wall mural project at a Colorado Springs salon, weaving together empowering imagery across seven distinct panels: a woman with gold hoops and roses, chrome lettering spelling EMPOWER and GROWTH, doves in flight, and a lotus in bloom. Each wall tells part of a larger story about personal transformation.

Artist's Note
“Salons are transformation spaces — people arrive as one version of themselves and leave as another. I wanted the art to reinforce that journey. Every wall represents a different stage: roots, growth, empowerment, and finally, bloom.”
— Rachel Dinda
Inspiration
The salon owner's vision was clear — she wanted clients to feel celebrated from the moment they walked in. Each panel represents a facet of the transformation process: the lotus for rising above, the doves for liberation, the roses for beauty that grows from thorns.
The Process
Seven walls meant seven compositions that needed to work independently while flowing together as a single narrative. I mapped the entire space before painting a single stroke, planning sight lines and transitions between rooms. The chrome lettering required a specialized technique — building up layers of gray, white, and silver to simulate reflective metal on a flat surface.
Community Impact
The salon has become known for its atmosphere as much as its services. Clients share photos of individual panels with personal affirmations attached. The owner says the murals have elevated how people perceive the business.
