Murals
in hospitals and medical facilities serve an important function. Institutional
environments typical of examination areas and patient rooms can be softened and
given a less clinical feel by transforming these spaces with murals. Since each
facility is different, a personalized site evaluation is often the first step
before mural painting activities commence. Through meetings and
preliminary designs
I strive to offer each locale mural treatments that will turn
hospital interiors
into "patient friendly" environments.

Ceilings
in operating rooms and linear accelerator areas can be transformed
into soothing,
cloud filled blue skies. Reception and waiting rooms become more
inviting to adults
and children during long waits.

All
mural surfaces are painted with low odor acrylic/latex paint and given a final
treatment with an acrylic clear coating so that the surface stands up
to hospital
cleaning standards.
