Murals and Trompe L'Oeil

I have always loved large paintings, and the opportunity to paint murals and scenery enables me to paint as big as possible. I enjoy the challenge of murals, as they demand all the skills of perspective, painting and achievement of visual effects, including trompe l'oeil, to their utmost.

My approach to murals is that they must combine the subject matter specified by the client with enough visual interest to survive repeated viewings as people use the room the mural is in. This requires highly detailed painting together with sweeping perspectives and the introduction of lighter touches in places.

Please contact me if you would like to commission a mural yourself. Murals are priced according to the length of time they are estimated to take to complete (a combination of size, complexity and location). Prices start from around £500 for a straightforward mural on one wall and can run into several thousand pounds for large murals with complex, highly detailed subject matter.
