"It Starts with a Vision"...




Tuscan Mural
Billy O' Deli - Woodburn, Oregon 2003
The first independently commissioned mural
Size:
30 ft x 30 ft. Image for mural from a floor mat that was 2' x 3' in size

Behind the Scenes:
The mural was painted in the spring, while the building underwent a drastic remodel. It was a pharmacy in the 1960s, it became a restaurant, and finally a bistro deli and cafe.

Time to Complete:
2 months




Coffee Shop Mural
B.J.'s Coffee Molalla, Oregon 2003 

The Mediteranian sea is background to rolling hills with olive trees, villas, villages, shops which I added the customers who came into the coffee shop so they could be "part" of the mural.

A faux rock wall is on the outside walls to the nook where the mural is painted.
