My rates vary from $25-70/sq. ft. and I can accept all major credit and debit cards.  I have a minimum of $2,000 for mural projects.

Price varies by wall size, interior or exterior, design complexity, wall prep, material and tool costs, and travel costs amongst other factors.  The price you are quoted will be an all inclusive of materials, tools, wall prep, insurance, taxes, and travel cost. 

Travel work expenses can be greatly reduced if I can stay on site while the work is being completed.

I’m located in the heart of Tampa, Florida – but I LOVE traveling for work.  While traveling jobs do cost more to account for travel expenses, much of the cost can be reduced if hosts are comfortable allowing me to stay on site during painting time.  I’m more than happy to work something out that makes sense for everyone.  

It depends on the wall size, design complexity and weather conditions (if exterior). But I can typically finish most projects as quickly as 2 days to a week.  I know it’s important have your place booked with guests, and will employ assistance if needed to get the job done a timely manner.

In our initial discussions via email or zoom we will agree on a quoted price based on your space, location and design theme.  I may present a mood board at no cost for your project at no cost if desired or if I feel it may help us get aligned on design choices.

Once we have agreed to move forward, I will email you a contract to sign and an invoice with the deposit (25-50% of total) before work begins. 

With the contract and deposit paid, I will begin working on a mock up design for your wall.

During the design process, I present you with an initial design based on our discussions – two free revisions are included.

Once you’ve approved a mock up design and we have a date for painting – the real work begins!

After painting is completed and you’re happy with the mural, you pay the remainder of the invoice (75-50%) – enjoy your new mural, and then leave me a stellar review for a job well done!

A mural will last at least ten years.  The longevity of the mural will depend on how much sun exposure it receives, and the preparedness of the substrate on which is it painted on.  

Talk to us about optional in depth wall prep and clear coating to add to your mural.

I primarily (and preferrably) use aerosol (spray) paint for exterior projects.  These are specific, highly pigmented spray paints built to last many years on outside walls.

I also use Behr exterior house paint, or Benjamin Moore house paint in supplement of the aersol paint, or entirely for interior projects where aerosol paint may not be appropriate. 

The best surfaces for murals are large exterior and interior walls.  Drywall, Brick, Stucco, etc.

Vinyl fence and wood fence can also be painted with a mural with additional prep/fees.

Corrugated metal may be painted for additional fees. 

If you have an another interesting surface, feel free to ask!
