Out-door Trompe l’oeil Mural

admin — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 06:35:00 +0000

The window you see on the left wall next to the ivy is hand painted, the ivy too. It’s a trompe l’oeil mural which is French and means it is tricking the eye. The owl sitting in front of the window is painted of course too. It is possible to do a whole facade with windows, doors and greenery. If you ahve an out-door facade which has no windows send an email and we we can change this – it is cheaper than to built in real windows.

Sky Mural with Parrot

The upper part of the wall is the continuation of a tropical wall mural on the adjacent wall. I painted a parrot and some top leaves of palm trees which are complementing the other mural nicely.

Hand painted Kitchen Floor

hand painted wooden kitchen floor

Ornamental Painting on a wooden floor all around the room; here a kitchen in Country style.

The paint is durable, and will not come off during floor cleaning. Good sealing of the painting will prevent this.

The original floor was an old oak parquet floor which did not match the overall style of the home.
To paint the floor was a good solution. Everything is possible.

Birch Tree Mural Pasadena

Birch tree mural for a hallway in Altadena

The group of birch trees was a good choice for the hallway with high ceilings. I did the mural for a charming home in Altadena.

My client also wanted to have some of the local parrots in the mural. These parrots are flying around in the area and take often a rest on their trees in the garden and neighborhood. The green and red colored parrots were kept in a pet store many, many years ago and could escape because of a fire. Since then they continued to live a happy life in the “local wildernes” of Pasadena and Altadena.

I added 3 parrots to the mural, one is flying on the opposite wall.

Whimsical Nursery Tree Mural

Nursery Mural with a whimsical tree and monkeys

I did this whimsical mural for a nursery in a home of the famous Hollywood Hills, Los Angeles.
The walls were painted in a vibrant canary yellow, the tree itself in a warm brown with colorful leaves of purple, yellow, orange, green and blue.
The branches curl at the ends and the horizon line gives the imagination of an ocean far away.

On the opposite wall we decided to add 2 monkeys, cheerful and playing. A friend who visited my clients while I was painting said, that you never can be unhappy in such a room. And she was right, the mural added so much happiness to the room – together with my clients we created a very warm welcome for the baby.
Who would not want that?

A Mural for Small Rooms

Vineyard Mural for a small room

What do you do with a wall of 4 by 5 feet size which is the back wall of a closet?

You can paint it green or white or get it tiled or faux finished. But this would not make the room look bigger.
The vineyard with a path between the vines will add an optical illusion.

Do you have such a small space in your home?

Call 818 470 if you want to bring some more space into your home.

We do wine cellars and game rooms too…

: Beach Mural

This beautiful pastell colored beach mural was done for a cute little girl.

It was going around all four walls and has an umbrella, a sand castle, a surf board and palm trees.

Isn’t it charming? A beach mural is very fun for children and a very cute theme. It can be combined with almost every furniture color.

: Bird’s Nest for a bedroom

The bird’s nest is a sweet feature for a children’s bedroom, a nursery or any room in a home which is decorated in Country style.

It could also be very well in the kitchen over the door or the stove or any corner. It adds a natural touch to all kinds of rooms and interior design.

Outdoor Underwater Mural – creates a special effect!

admin — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 22:07:26 +0000

Do you have a concrete wall in the backyard or in the front of your home or office? It can become an eye-catcher with a mural.

Like this underwater mural with cartoonish water creatures. When we did this mural – it was by the way my first mural, yep, it all started with this one - people who walked by stopped and were very impressed by the created effect.

I did this mural more than 10 years ago and when I saw it 5 years ago it the colors were shiny and vibrant like after completion.

: Sand castle

The mural had been done all around the room and included the ceiling too.

The sand castle, dolphins, palm trees and an umbrella in the corner changed the baby room into a wonderful beach scene.
