custom murals artist serving newport beach

I create hand-painted murals for Newport Beach’s luxury, hospitality, and public spaces. With a California C-33 contractors license, I design murals that enhance architecture and bring a sophisticated, site-responsive layer to homes, hotels, and commercial properties throughout the area.

My work blends clean linework, thoughtful color, and storytelling to complement Newport Beach’s coastal style and upscale environments.

why hire a licensed muralist in newport beach

While SB 456 exempts some muralists from licensing, hiring a licensed painting contractor still offers clear advantages - especially for larger or more complex projects.

A license signals experience with job site coordination, safety standards, and regulatory compliance. It is also the only way for a muralist to carry proper insurance, including workers’ comp for assistants, which is still required by law.

Without a license, coverage is missing, creating potential risk for clients and property owners. Working with a licensed painter means coverage and compliance are fully in place, protecting everyone involved.
