01
A city that runs across the whole room
Painted in place, straight onto the wall behind the bed, so the architecture of the room becomes part of the composition. Nothing here is a print or a decal.
Murals in Aruba
The wall is the canvas
I paint murals by hand across Aruba, from a single interior wall to a full building facade. You get a site visit, photographs and a visual proposal within one week, and painting starts only once you approve it.
Painted walls
Walls I have painted
Interiors, room-scale compositions and exterior facades. Every one painted on site, by hand, with brushes and rollers rather than printed vinyl.
02
A figure who lives in the room
An interior wall where the subject and the buildings behind them are painted at full height. Warm colour chosen against the room's own light, tested on the wall before it was committed.
03
One hand, start to finish
No production team and no subcontracting. The person who draws the proposal is the person on the ladder, which is why the finished wall looks like the sketch you approved.
04
Big pieces start flat
Large panels are built on the floor first, section by section, so the geometry stays honest before anything stands upright on a wall.
How a commission runs
Four steps, one week to a proposal
The same order every time, so you always know what happens next and nothing is painted before you have seen it.
01
VisitWe sit down over coffee, you tell me what the space is for, then I walk it.
02
AnalyzeI photograph the room and read its light, scale, movement and personality before drawing anything.
03
VisualizeWithin one week you see the proposal on screen, next to the real room, before a drop of paint.
04
ProduceYou approve the direction, I prepare the wall, and the piece goes up by hand.
Questions
Murals, answered
Who paints murals in Aruba?
I do, across Oranjestad, Noord, Palm Beach and San Nicolas. I visit the space, photograph it, and send a visual proposal within one week before any paint is opened.
How much does a mural cost?
Price depends on wall size, surface preparation, height access and detail. Send photographs and measurements and you receive a written figure before anything is committed.
How long does a mural take to paint?
A proposal takes about one week. Painting itself runs from a single day for a small interior wall to two weeks for a large exterior facade.
Do you paint murals for businesses?
Yes. Restaurants, shops, hotels and offices across Aruba. I photograph the room, propose a design that fits the brand, and paint it on site by hand.
Can you paint outside, in the Aruba sun and salt?
Yes. Exterior walls get the surface preparation and exterior-grade materials the wall needs, which is decided after I have seen it in person.
What do you need from me to start?
Photographs of the wall, rough dimensions, the location, and a sentence about what the space is for. That is enough for a first conversation.
Have a wall in mind?
Send photographs and rough measurements. You will get an honest answer about what suits the space, and a written figure before anything is committed.
