• Three-dimensional Murals • Decorative Accents • Niches/Alcove Panels Because all artwork is done completely by hand, it can be made to fit any space or size necessary. Sculpted wall murals can also be applied on smooth or textured surfaces that are not flat such as pillars or curved walls that are often used on stairwells.

Three-dimensional Murals![]() |
||||||
Wall sculptures can range in size from one foot square to entire walls. Subjects can be of almost anything, from a favorite vacation spot, to a photo of someplace you visited in your travels, to your summer home or backwoods cabin. Singular items such as large trees have also been a favorite subject of homeowners...some have been as high as 14' and proportionately wide. The possibilities are limited only by your imagination. (See below for examples.) Subject matter that is generally not considered for wall sculptures are portraits and pets. Including people in a mural is acceptable as long as they don’t have to resemble a specific person. As an example, a mural of children making a sand castle on the beach could be sculpted as long as they don’t have to look exactly like your children. |

Niches and Alcove Panels (any recessed area) ![]() |
|||||||
Recessed areas, such as niches and alcoves, provide an opportunity to be creative. A panel can be sculpted and placed in a recessed area and can be changed as desired without it being permanent on the wall (A recessed area is suggested in order to cover the edge of the panel).

Sculpted, Framed Pictures (Hangable Murals) ![]() |
|||||||
Due to the many requests for portable sculpted mural pieces, framed picture-style artwork has been added to the product line. Most of the artwork is custom designed and specifically created just for the customer. Because homeowners sometimes would like to bring the pieces with them when they move, many people ask for portable pieces that they can take with them to hang on a wall in their new residence. Portable pieces also work well for renters who are not allowed to apply something like this permanently to their walls but would like to display this unique style of art. Sculpted panels can be ordered framed or unframed. |

Shadow Boxes![]() |
|||||||
Lighted shadow boxes have become a very popular addition to What-A-Relief. The piece starts out with an old window frame as the front (without glass). A barn board frame for the sides is then constructed and attached to create a box. An L.E.D. strip is then mounted in the box to help illuminate the sculpted panel and create more dramatic shadows. The sculpted panel is then screwed in from the back. Like the niches, panels can changed out to allow the subject to match the seasons, etc. If panels are ordered in the future, the size of the previous panel will be needed to make a replacement. Again, the panels can be made as personal as you like. | |||||||
