Services Overview
Our primary services include conceptual design and full size production of movable backdrops for movies, television, theatre, commercials, photo shoots, exhibits and bands. We can design and produce custom permanent wall murals and large scale paintings for restauranteurs, architectural and hospitality design firms, theme parks, art directors, interior designers and individual clients. All of our interior permanent murals are painted on premium canvas for durability, sealed to be washable, then installed like a 1 piece wall paper! This method greatly reduces the inconvenience on both parties and we can usually be finished with installation in less than a day.

Artwork
If you don't already have approved artwork then we work with you to flesh out a concept and scale of work to be painted. Many times, we have been given album covers or articles of clothing to be used for the artwork! Whatever design elements you bring to the table will help to develop a strong sense of your style and aesthetic, culminating with a painted project you will be proud to display! Paintings, Backdrops and Murals communicate a unique sense of place while adding character to any environment. We can create artwork to tell any story you can imagine. We know, "a picture is worth a thousand words!"
Expectations
Designing custom artwork may take as long as executing the full size painting, and we charge depending on the detail and complexity of the project. The proposed design should be viewed as a roadmap that will increase in detail with the final painting. Artwork design represents a significant investment of time and effort on the part of the artist, and you might expect to pay up to half of the estimated contract up front, to be paid in full at the completion of the project. We will include projected costs and potential timeline in our bid. This method works well if a particular client asks for several different artist's interpretations or company bids. We will update you with photos of the progress.

Delivery
If your project is a permanent interior mural we will ship it to you, then after the artwork is safely delivered, we travel to your location to install it. After installation is completed, we receive your final payment. Large scale framed paintings are specially crated for deliveries over 150 miles outside of Cincinnati, Ohio and backdrops are folded, boxed and shipped to your desired location.
