Wall Murals

Bringing splashes of art and culture to our city. One wall at a time.

Colours

Wall Mural Colours

Extensive time and consideration go into the colours used in Christiano’s wall murals, just as with corporate and business branding. Christiano has worked with well-known companies and government organizations such as StreetARToronto (StART), City of Toronto BIAs, Apple, Cirque du Soleil, Flight Centre, Air Canada, Steam Whistle, Jimmy’s Coffee and many others that require thoughtful and precise colour choices. It is Christiano’s obsession with perfect colour matching and accurate representation that plays a large role in him producing stunning results for every one of his clients. Colour is essential in bringing energy to a wall mural: a brightly coloured subject within a dark scene gives a sense of vibrancy and life to the mural.

Project management

Wall Mural Project Management

The planning phase of developing a wall mural is critical. Each project has specific needs and requirements. Wall murals present a number of logistics that need to be addressed and are a regular part of our projects. Christiano’s team ensures all aspects are covered and that the process is smooth until project completion. Project Management logistics that Christiano takes into consideration include: • Permits • Equipment rentals (ladders scaffolding, boom lift, swing stages) • Site access, set up and equipment storage • Any specific resources required (such as insurance, contracts, safety and traffic control plans) • Community Consultation and Mentorship

Safety

Wall Mural Safety

When painting murals at heights, in public spaces, and in busy or high-traffic areas, safety is our highest priority. Each project is evaluated on an individual basis to ensure that appropriate precautions are taken. This ensures every mural is completed safely. We are willing to be flexible with painting schedules to avoid high traffic times and any inconvenience to business operation in the surrounding area. We are fully insured through Commercial General Insurance Liability Policy as well as WSIB coverage. Christiano has over 25 years of experience working with heavy equipment like scaffolding, powered lift systems, scissor lift, boom lift, swing stage and forklift.

Maintenance

Wall Mural Maintenance

Our method of required maintenance for wall murals follows the city’s graffiti management plan. We recommend applying 2 coats of Sherwin Williams’ anti-graffiti clear coating ‘1K Siloxane’ upon the completion of any wall mural. The non-sacrificial coating is essentially chemical resistant paint. It can be easily cleaned with a low-pressure power washer. This coating also enhances the vibrancy of the colours of the wall mural as well as offers protection against UV rays, weathering, road salts and other forces of nature that degrade or damage the walls. This enhances the mural’s longevity and facilitates ease of maintenance.

Wall Murals

I believe art transforms communities and improves the lives of all those living there. It’s my passion. I have been creating large scale wall murals for over 25 years and I still get excited about each new project.

I paint murals and graffiti art of all shapes and sizes, within a multitude of art mediums, in any style or technique you choose (realism, hyper-realism, illustration, graphic, and abstract). I’m not afraid of Canadian winters so I work all year round.

I’m on time and on budget. I run a safety-first work site (fully insured for commercial liability and WSIB coverage). I’ve worked with the City of Toronto’s StreetARToronto program, large scale commercial clients, and local BIAs.

I always align myself with the unique needs of my patrons to craft art that celebrates the human spirit in all of us.

Let’s make something special.
