Red Squirrel Study No. 3 – Tile Mural

A red squirrel with a bushy tail and alert ears is the central figure in this detailed woodland scene. It sits perched amidst gnarled tree roots and branches thick with green moss, surrounded by clusters of brown-capped toadstools and delicate ferns. Golden light filters through the canopy, illuminating the rich orange and russet tones of falling oak leaves against the deep greens and browns of the forest floor. The composition has the enchanting quality of a classic storybook illustration, full of texture and warmth.

A curious red squirrel pauses on a moss covered branch, holding a nut between its paws in a sun-dappled autumn wood.

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.

The warm, earthy palette of this woodland mural complements natural materials like wood and stone, which makes it an excellent feature wall in a living room or snug. Its rich detail and cosy atmosphere would work particularly well alongside a fireplace or in a reading nook, lending a sense of rustic charm to the space.
