Murals

Consider a mural for your next decorating venture in your home or business. A mural is a picture painted directly on the wall. Unlike traditional paintings, murals become part of the space. Murals are appropriate for many settings such as homes, schools, restaurants, and offices.

Imagine how a small room seems to expand when French doors or a window leading to a country garden is painted on the wall. Suddenly we hear birds and smell roses when we walk into the room! Or visualize an elegant dining area with hand painted columns and an elaborate scroll boarder around the top.

Murals for Schools

Schools, old and new should reflect innovation and lift the spirit. Say good-bye to drab hallways when you dramatize by adding bigger than life giraffes, cheetahs, and moose!! Show school spirit with children’s silhouettes done in the school colors through-out the gymnasium.

Luanne is available to come to your school where she will work with children, teachers, parents, and community to foster the creation of a beautiful mural. Along with students, Luanne creates exciting spaces. This can involve entire rooms, halls or one wall. Instead of drab walls the students will help create rooms that become planets, an underwater adventure, a jungle, or interior of a space ship. The only limit is the staff and student’s desire and imagination!

Custom Furniture, Panels, and Faux Finishes

Custom furniture designs incorportate color schemes and themes of spaces. They can be used in combination with a mural or alone. Many times the customer's own furniture may be used and other pieces are also available for purchase.

Painted panels give a mural like effect without the commitment of a mural. A panel design can look like a door or window and is created on light wood which is easily removed from the wall at any time. Any scene or image can be depicted in the "door" or "window".

Faux finishes can add visual texsture to walls, and can also imitate other surfaces such as wood or marble. They can be an alternative to expensive refinishing. Faux finishes work wonderfully to disguise less than perfect surfaces.

Portraits

A portrait is a drawing or painting of a person or a pet. Many people enjoy receiving a portrait as a gift.

Portraits of people we love make a wonderful addition to any home décor. Portraits of children and adored spouses look wonderful above sofas and fireplaces. How about having a portrait done of the whole family as a gift for Grandma?

Pet owners also appreciate a portrait of that cherished furry friend. Avid cat and dog lovers really like having a beautiful portrait of their pet to help keep him close to their heart always.

Special places are often a spot of sentimentality Celebrate a new home by having a portrait of it done. Or keep fond memories alive for those folks moving from a dear family home. Or perhaps it is a nearby wood or lake that is a special place for you. You can imagine you are there when you hang a beautiful portrait of the place.
