Many Moms ask, "Isn't it scary?", but I've never met a boy who didn't love a dinosaur mural. This image is based upon an illustration by Jeff's favorite dinosaur artist, Mark Hallett. Painted CupboardThis piece was in the client's dining room. After I had painted the walls, the piece needed to be spruced up to coordinate. The dog is a portrait of their Rhodesian Ridgeback and the painted-on lace matched a piece that lay on the dining room table. Dome AuroraDetail of dome painted for a doctor's office in Westlake Village. Eggs and ThingsThis mural was done on canvas and then wallpapered to the wall at Eggs "N" Things Restaurant in Camarillo. Trompe l’oeil NicheThis trompe l'oeil niche was painted on cambric cloth and installed like wallpaper. Shadows were then added to the wall to enhance the three-dimensional effect. This is over a staircase in Palos Verdes. Trellis Ceiling by Jeff Raum & Steve ShriverThis ceiling which consisted of four groins was designed by Steve Shriver. Jeff painted all the architecture and Steve painted the organic elements. This was for the president of John Robert Powers, located in Pacific Palisades.

The "wrought iron" designs in this mural were incorporated into the real railings on the exterior of this house. Tented CeilingThis ceiling was in a breakfast nook. Wine Cellar CeilingThe trompe l'oeil beams were laid out to line up with the recessed ceiling lights so the lights wouldn't appear to float in the "sky". Dome AuroraA dome painted for a doctor's office in Westlake Village. Dragon MuralThis was painted on cloth and installed on a Moorpark boy's bedroom ceiling. The boy picked out which head and tail he wanted and specified it was to be a "balrog dragon". The wingspan is 7 1/2 ft. Motifs like this can be painted on cloth and installed with repositionable adhesive so the piece can be easily removed for storage or a new home. They also can be easily rolled and shipped and pieces like this have been installed as far away as India. « Previous 1 2 3 4
