Murals, much like wall art can enhance a room.  A well placed mural can add depth, interest, color and style.  At Embellishments, we also use murals as an ingredient for children's rooms and play spaces.  Quite often it can be used in conjunction with wall art.  We can offer a variety of artistic styles, content and techniques to achieve the look you want.   We have an extensive portfolio of murals that we can share with you.  Here are a few random samples.

  My client fell in love with Serena and Lily's Wren bedding.  She wanted the very small nursery, with traditional white wainscot and shutters, to coordinate in a simple yet elegant way.

To do so, I painted the room a soft turquoise and created a custom leaf garland pattern to embellish the walls just below the crown molding.

A simple and elegant fix!

Note:  It is important, when working with copyrighted materials (intellectual property such as bedding patterns , art and licensed characters), not to infringe upon such rights.  As an artist, it is always a welcome challenge to coordinate yet not infringe.   My custom garland pattern, pictured here, conveys the same design principles as their embroidered bed skirt without infringing upon their wonderful design.

My clients, two toddlers, whom love all that creeps, crawls and flies needed a room with a jungle view.  To achieve this, I painted a window mural in my studio and installed it on site.   It was a amalgamation of their favorite South American and African animals.    With so much to play with, this room needed additional storage, so I created  a 3-D tree sculpture from maple to house all the monkeys.  The twin's room was the inspiration for the Metropolitan Wildlife piece, I've just added to my Wall art collection, below.
