Most of the murals and artworks are hand painted originals; some are thousands of square feet in size. The professional mural artists create most of the custom murals in the mural painting studios although very often exterior murals are painted on-site or on location. Retail store murals are created either on location or as canvas murals that are installed. The mural art is painted on mural canvas or muslin with a specially prepared primer and ground. This unique ground gives the murals a rich patina similar to an old world fresco mural, while adding durability and longevity to the mural artwork. The murals are washable and suitable for commercial and exterior use. They are rolled for shipping and installed much like wall covering. A class "A" fire rating with certification is available when required. This is a requirement for theater murals, public space murals and even some residential murals.

Cost of murals: Mural cost ranges widely depending on whether it's residential wall murals or murals for theaters. Portable murals require special edge finishing resulting in higher cost. The cost is based on total square footage per order, level of complexity and type of installation. The minimum order is $5,000.00. Paintings less than 80 square feet, (8' x 10') can be more. Multiple paintings or murals on one order qualify for quantity discounting. Classical murals are often more expensive than modern art murals. Venetian plaster and special finishes are priced between $8.00 and $16.00 per square foot. All costs quoted are wholesale.
