No surprises! Make Sure Your Artists Makes a Sample.

Surprises are great for your birthday or anniversary. However SURPRISES should not synonymous with your wall finishes. You deserve to know what your walls will look like before the project begins! Average To Art prepares 3-5 samples for your project and we guarantee the sample you choose will match the finished project. Another service we offer is building a computer simulation of your room and “paste” your finish on the appropriate walls so you can see your finished project before it begins. Pictured above, Artist Cindy Pressnell prepares multiple sample boards for our clients.

Buon Appetito! Checkered Scarf Mural

Our client, P.W., built this house a couple years ago in Madison, AL and wanted to put her personal touch in the kitchen. P.W. loved her Italian chef's, but felt something was missing, so we painted a flowing checkered scarf to tie in all of her chef artwork. Buon Appetito!

Quality Plasters

We are supporters of ONLY using professional-grade plasters for decorative finishes. It is true, “you get what you pay for”. When hiring a professional finisher to create a textured finish on your wall, specifically ask what kind of plaster they will use. Joint compound (a.k.a wall mud) is meant for smoothing out drywall seams, it is not a reliable decorative finish. A reliable plaster will not chip, crack, and in most cases self sealing. Feel free to call Average to art and they will be happy to direct you to the appropriate plasters for your decorating needs.
