Beginner muralist here. How long does it take to finish an 11x3 m mural wall? which paint to use? Self-mix or Pre-mix paints?

I'm not really a muralist but an architecture student which happened to be on vacation and was tasked by a local church to create an interior mural. Since I have no experience of painting large walls, I have several questions which I thought the experience muralists here could give me wisdom on.

  1. What is the estimated completion time for a mural sized at 11x3 meters, with complexity such as this photo (artwork by Phyllis Shafer)?
  2. Since the local church has a limited budget, it's best to be wise in purchasing paint. Is it better to mix my own and create the colors as shown in the photo? (If yes, do u have a recommended line of paint brands and shades? **as far as I know, as long as I have both cool and warm primary colors and white, I can achieve almost any color**) or have them pre-mixed?

Hope someone can answer this. Thank you!!

ASP 02 S9 TransArtSpots is a non-profit and 100% community-driven project. We run it because we love to discover art and share it with others. The app does not contain any ads and we do not get money from this project at all. That's why we ask for your help! 

Wanna help spread the word about the App?

It would be great if you can tell your friends about ArtSpots, or if you run a website or blog, share the news and post a page. If you are active on social media, please also spread the word among your friends - art needs a space without commerce and it should be us, who count, not money and some shareholders. Thank you!

If you need pictures and stuff, here is the download to a media package, containing screens of the app, the image teaser and a short description you can freely use.

See you in ArtSpots.
