To find the total area of a square wall that needs to be painted, you can use the formula for the area of a square, which is:

\[
\text{Area} = \text{side length}^2
\]

Given that each side of the wall is 14 feet long, the area is calculated as follows:

\[
\text{Area} = 14 \, \text{feet} \times 14 \, \text{feet} = 196 \, \text{square feet}
\]

Therefore, the total area to be painted is **196 square feet**.
