For over 30 years, I’ve specialized in decorative painting, murals, and faux finishes, creating custom artwork for homes and businesses. As a one-person studio, I handle every step myself, ensuring personal attention, consistency, and quality on each project. Every job is unique. I listen closely to your ideas, then design and paint finishes and murals that reflect your style and transform your space. From subtle textures to bold statement walls, my goal is to help you create surroundings you truly love. If you’re ready to bring a creative, custom touch to your walls, I’d be happy to talk through your vision.

Hired on Thumbtack

Contacted me immediately, set an appointment to view the area of work. Came with some great ideas, comments, which we ended up incorporating, and then gave me a bid that was reasonable and fair. Able to start work the following week, taking only one day to complete. The result was a stunningly beautiful mural... exactly what we were wanting.

Anne, just painted a nursery for me and I must say she did an amazing job!!! She's awesome and wonderful. She did exactly what I had requested and the end project turned out to be even better than what I had expected. She's truly a talented individual and I would definitely work with her again in the near future.

Anne is a true artist with close attention to detail. The faux brick wall she did for me way exceeded my expectations. My patio is now a bistro! Highly recommended.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Custom painting jobs usually require an on-site visit to discuss colors, design ideas, and the scope of work. I’ve been painting professionally since 1994 and pride myself on fair, honest pricing with no hidden fees. Every project is completed neatly and with attention to detail.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My typical process starts with a site visit to discuss the project details, colors, and ideas. After that, I provide a written estimate and request a deposit to create a sketch. Once the sketch is approved, I move forward to complete the project.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been a professional artist since 1994 with a strong background in the visual arts. I have a masters degree in Applied Communications and I work extensively in the community to create art and connect the public with art and artists.
