Welcome to the painting portfolio of Livingmurals®.
The works of art that you are about to see were made possible by a lifetime of professional house painting experience. Before any specialty paint finish begins, three coats of paint are applied and the walls are repaired to have no dents, dings, or flaws, which will only become more obvious when the walls are decorated with a faux paint finish. In most cases, the ceilings and trim are also painted. Every wall is approached as a blank canvas and every inch of the wall becomes a wall mural.
Over a period of 7 years, many rooms have been painted 2 at a time to eventually lead to entire homes being custom faux finished.
Most of the work you are about to view was painted between the years of 2002 and 2009. There has not been such a demand for faux finished rooms since. Sadly, most of the photos are not high definition and the photos were taken before a camera was included in any of our toolbags.

Hand Painted Stripes
This decorative faux paint finish involved three coats of satin finish paint and drywall applications to achieve flawless wall surfaces, before the taping could begin. The stripes were created by applying a pearl glaze.
