Red Squirrel Study No. 16 – Tile Mural

A curious red squirrel pauses on a moss covered branch, its bushy tail held high against a backdrop of sun-dappled woodland.

The mural’s deep, earthy palette of browns, greens, and ochres introduces a warm, rustic character to a living room or study. Its detailed woodland subject matter coordinates well with natural materials like wood and stone, contributing to a restful, country-inspired interior.

The scene centres on a detailed red squirrel, its amber fur and white underside rendered with fine brushwork. It rests on a gnarled, mossy limb that extends across the composition, surrounded by a rich tapestry of forest foliage including green and browning ferns, clusters of red and blue berries, and golden-brown oak leaves. In the background, soft light filters through the dense trees, illuminating the autumnal forest with a gentle, tranquil glow.

Every mural is printed and kiln fired to order in Somerset, England, on ceramic tiles in your choice of three sizes — 10cm, 15cm or 20cm — and two finishes, Gloss or Matt. Colours are fired into the glaze, so the design is permanent, scratch resistant and completely waterproof, making it suitable for kitchen splashbacks, bathrooms and showers.
