why work with a licensed mural studio?
While SB 456 exempts some muralists from licensing, hiring a licensed mural studio 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 licensed painters means coverage and compliance are fully in place, protecting everyone involved.
