How lovely! A fabulous talent.

I suspect your DD & SiL re trying to keep the room " calm" so want subdued colours, which I can understand.

Whilst you delightful watercolour is not bright maybe they are worried emulsion/ eggshell may show up as brighter, especially on a larger scale. I would just go with what they are asking..mayvalso reduce cost if fewer colours are needed.

It is going to look amazing , even if your trees end up silver birch rather than beech trees!

You have a rare talent.
My Godfather used to do the same on commission. There's a cottage industry for you.flowers

How amazing! I wish I could do that. You’re so clever. I wouldn’t want the trees to be grey, trees are green!

The image is of the water colour painting I did to give her a few ideas.

Hello lovely grans netters. My daughter lives in another country and I visit as often as I can. She has asked me to paint a mural onto the new babies bedroom wall. I have done a preliminary water colour painting with bunnies, butterflies and bees, trees and wild flowers.
I have one week to do this. Her and her husband are saying that they like some things, but, can the tree be painted a grey colour along with the bunnies. The wild flowers are to be pastel colours etc.
Has anyone else done a mural and could give me some good tips?
