What Carla does
For the past twenty years, I have been transforming children's rooms into a fantasy land. Creating animated murals that allow your child's imagination to run wild. I cover entire rooms, or just a small area over the crib, or window. Did you know that murals are not just for children. I have also created murals in veterinary offices, fitness centers, and business offices.
What Carla does best
Children absolutetly love my funny characters. I always talk to both the parent and the child to get their ideas as to what they would like their "magic wall" to look like. One little boy loved to go camping, and his mom had redone his bed to look like a tent. So we redid his whole room to look like a camping scene; with swimming holes; boating fun;hiking trails, and of course a campfire with marshmallows. There is no limit to the scenes I can create. All my work is original; I don't paint "disney characters". Each mural is custom designed for my clients needs.
What does Carla need?
I am looking for ideas on how I can expand my business. I would love referrals. I know there are lots of mothers out there with infants or small children; or businesses looking to dress up their space. Biznik has been a great help, in getting me in touch with people who have a lot of business knowledge, and I am getting some great ideas. Thank you all so much.
Education
Art is a gift. I have been lucky to be blessed with this gift to create things. I see a picture in my imagination, and I am able to put it onto a wall. Twenty years of experience have taught me a lot, and I have developed my talent over time. My education has been in Zoology, and working with animals. The animals I work with are also the inspiration for my murals. They have their own personalities that come to life in my paintings.
Experience
My first mural was painted in my daughter's bedroom about 22 years ago. I mostly paint animal murals, since I am inspired by them daily. If you go to the website, you'll get a good idea of the work I create.
