ABOUT
Hi! My name is Laura-Anne and I'm a passionate muralist with over 20 years of bringing bold, vibrant stories to life - on walls, floors, ceilings, furniture, signs, vehicles, and even windows.
• Streamlined Process - from design mockups and prep to painting and clean-up, I’ll guide your every step
• Client-Centered Approach - I believe “The client always comes first.” Expect open collaboration and clear communication
Why Choose Me?
• Versatility & Flexibility - highly detailed realism, collage, graffiti, modern minimalism, retro; you name it, I can do it. (I'm kinda sassy that way)
• Skill & Quality - extensive experience with surfaces; indoors and outdoors, at any height or scale
• Durability - I use high-end materials and protection to ensure longevity, even in challenging environments
Every wall has a story, and I’m endlessly grateful for the people who trust me to paint theirs.
Whether it’s your business, your home, or a community space - I’d love to help your walls finally say something beautiful.
