commissioning a mural
Interior murals are hand painted using low odor, quality interior latex paint. If needed the surface is first primed, then sanded. Painted items such as switch plates, shelves and furniture are polyurethaned. Exterior murals are hand painted with quality exterior latex paint. Floors are covered with drop cloths. Area should be clear of all removable items. Furniture and removable shelves can be painted in my studio. Customed designed pieces are hand cut, painted and assembled in my studio then installed. My preference is to create the murals on site. Thus, I would need access to the residence or business at a time that would not be disruptive to the client. If this is not possible then some commissioned art can be painted in my studio then either shipped with installation instructions or delivered and installed by the studio staff on the premises.

An $80. non-refundable deposit is required to commence research and designing process. Colored sketch with time and price estimates will then be submitted and upon approval a $500. non- refundable deposit is required with the signing of the contract.
