1. A system for installing a decorative feature having a wave-like appearance, the system comprising: a first internal mount and second internal mount coupled to a support structure having a distance between the first internal mount and the second internal mount;a first external mount connected to the first internal mount and a second external mount connected to the second internal mount,wherein the first external mount and the second external mount both include at least one groove; andat least one decorative panel having a first edge that interfaces with the groove in the first external mount and a second edge that interfaces with the groove in the second external mount, wherein:the decorative panel is secured between the first external mount and the second external mount with a convex or concave deflection to create the wave-like appearance;the at least one groove comprises a first groove and a second groove located on opposite sides of the external mount; andthe first groove includes an angle that biases the decorative panel to have a convex deflection and the second groove includes an angle that biases the decorative panel to have a concave deflection. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one groove further comprises: a upper groove and a lower groove located on opposite sides of the external mount,wherein a shadow decorative panel can be secured between the lower groove of the first external mount and the upper groove of the second external mount. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the internal mount comprises a U-shaped extension having a plurality of raised protrusions. 4. The system of claim 3, wherein the external mount comprises a receiving portion having a plurality of raised protrusions that is configured to receive the U-shaped extension of the internal mount, wherein the plurality of raised protrusions on the U-shaped extension interface with the plurality of raised protrusions on the receiving portion such that the U-shaped extension is securely held within the receiving portion. 5. The system of claim 1, further comprising one or more battens that mount between the internal mount and the support structure to increase the standoff distance between the at least one decorative panel and the support structure. 6. The system of claim 1, further comprising one or more light sources coupled to the support structure such that light is directed towards the at least one decorative panel. 7. The system of claim 1, wherein the internal mount and external mount comprise elongated aluminum extrusions. 8. An decorative panel mounting assembly having decorative panels that form a wave-like aesthetic, comprising: a plurality of external mounts coupled to a support surface in parallel rows;a plurality of decorative panels secured between the plurality of external mounts to form rows of decorative panels,wherein: the rows of decorative panels alternate between the decorative panels having a convex configuration and having a concave configuration to form a wave-like appearance; andthe decorative panels having a convex configuration overlap at least a ortion of the decorative panels having a concave configuration. 9. The assembly in claim 8, wherein a single row of decorative panels comprises decorative panels having a convex configuration and decorative panels having a concave configuration. 10. The assembly in claim 8, wherein the decorative panels with a concave configuration comprise at least one end with a smaller width, the decorative panels having a convex configuration overlapping the end with a smaller width. 11. The assembly in claim 8, wherein the rows of decorative panels are horizontal. 12. The assembly in claim 8, wherein the rows of decorative panels are vertical. 13. The assembly in claim 8, wherein at least one of the external mounts comprises: a unitary piece having an angled grove on one side that biases a decorative panel to have a convex deflection; andon an opposing side a second angled groove that biases a decorative panel to have a concave deflection. 14. A method of installing a decorative feature with a wave-like appearance to a support structure, the method comprising: attaching a plurality of mounts to a support structure in a parallel row configuration;deflecting one or more flat decorative panels to form a curved decorative panel;securing one or more curved decorative panels between the mounts in a concave configuration;securing one or more curved decorative panels between the mounts in a convex configuration; andinstalling one or more shadow panels between the one or more flexible decorative panels and the support structure. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein the attaching mounts to a support structure comprises attaching an internal mount to the support structure and connecting an external mount to the internal mount. 16. The method of claim 14, wherein the one or more flexible decorative panels alternate between a convex and concave configuration along a length of a single mount. 17. The method of claim 14, wherein the one or more flexible decorative panels alternate between a convex and concave configuration from one row to the next in the parallel row configuration. 18. A system for installing a decorative feature having a wave-like appearance, the system comprising: first and second mounts coupled to a support structure, wherein a distance separates the first mount from the second mount;a groove on an upper side of each of the first and second mounts, and a groove in an opposing side of each of the first and second mountsa first decorative panel mounted between the first and second mount in one of a convex or concave configuration; anda second decorative panel mounted within the first mount, the second decorative panel being mounted above the first decorative panel in the opposite convex or concave configuration of the first panel;wherein the first and second mounts each comprise a unitary piece having a groove that biases a decorative panel toward a convex or concave configuration on one side, and, on an opposing side, another groove that bases a decorative panel toward the opposite of a convex or concave configuration. 19. The system as recited in claim 18, further comprising first and second internal mounts. 20. The system as recited in claim 18, wherein the first and second mounts into which the first and second decorative panels are mounted comprise first and second external mounts configured to be mounted within the first or second internal mounts.
