Lets Get Started…
Theme
First things first, make sure you have a theme in mind for the space. When choosing a theme for a mural, take a baby’s nursery for example, it may be as simple as matching bedding that has already been chosen, or it could become a developmental process taking many things into consideration. A mural in one’s space is expected to last for many years. For children, it may be their favorite something or you may choose to do a background with an area that will be easy to change down the road.
Sketching
Once the sketching has started the true process has begun. A 25% deposit of the total cost of the mural will also be reqiured before sketching starts. It is not an additional fee, it goes toward the final price of the completed job.
I will then present two or three different ideas to accomplish the desired feeling for the space. I am always prepared to do as many sketches as necessary to find the right look and feel for the space that my client is trying to embellish.
Painting
Wall murals are custom painted directly on the wall, or on canvas and shipped to any location. Canvas wall murals may be hung like a tapestry, or installed like wallpaper. For someone in a temporary situation, this is the way to go. Canvas murals do NOT include installation.
Even though you may see something in my website that you love, you will never get an exact replica of someone else’s mural. I am committed to customizing each and every job for each and every individual. All murals are created with your likes and preferences in mind.
When you schedule a consultation, I will take notes on the ideas that we talk about and together; we will do some creative brainstorming.
Consultations are always free!
