Why a Mural? When it comes to making an area unique or appealing, it's hard to
compete with a well executed Mural. Always original, a Mural has
the ability to reflect a specific mood, turn a building into a landmark,
or give an area that certain ambience that nothing else can. A
Mural
can make a personal statement, reflecting your taste from the walls of
your place of work, play or home.
What type of Surfaces do you work on?
Murals can be painted directly onto any sound wall surface, or
alternatively, can be painted on large rolls of canvas, or panels in
the studio. The advantage of doing the Mural in the studio, is that, as
the work is being done, there is no disruption to the client in the
place of business, and work can take place without interruption from
the public. When complete, the Mural is then transported to your
location, and fixed on the wall. Also, if the occasion arises, the
mural can be removed, and fixed in a new area.
What Paints do you use?
Only the highest quality
oil or acrylic paints are used
on all my Murals, and finished with a protective coating.
What type of Subject Matter do you suggest?
The sky's the limit. Once I view your area, and listen to your
thoughts and aspirations, I will get an idea of possible themes
suitable for you. Whether done in a subtle, vivid, contemporary,
or traditional style, the Mural could reflect subject matter as diverse as;
local history, sports, Celtic mythology, marine, musical, ancient
Greek / Roman, movies, copies of old paintings, landscapes,
old cars / times, rural, urban, equine, famous people, abstract
art, scenes based on old photographs, children's themes, a line
from a song, a favourite quotation, a favourite place, etc.
The list goes on and remember, the finished work will
always be unique, and a great conversation piece.
How much does a Mural cost?
The cost of a Mural depends on the amount of work involved in
the whole project, and needless to say, this can vary considerably.
No two Murals are alike, and once information regarding size,
location, and subject matter are discussed, a price can be given,
with due consideration to the client's budget.
I would like to
Commission a
Mural, how do we start?
After your initial
e-mail contact, we begin with a meeting,
where I learn more about your space, and discuss subject matter,
your budget, and the ambience desired. The design and sketch to scale
is the next step. Then, the Mural can be carried out on
location,
or in my studio, after which it would be taken to your premises
and installed.
Do you do smaller scale
Artwork?
From the largest Murals,
to the smaller canvases, whatever is required.
