Surfer Skateborder Mural – Carolee Merrill

Posted on by

I finished this 10′ x 40; surfer, skate border mural recently in Santa Ana, Ca. Here is my client’s review:

“I wanted to write a quick review despite rarely ever writing reviews. Huge kudos to Carolee Merrill and the incredibly talent and service she provides. I found Carolee on Craig’s List to do a huge wall mural painting which is roughly 40 feet long and 10 feet high. It is at an indoor “playground’ with batting cages, mega trampoline, skate half pipe, etc. The mural says “The Playground” in the middle and has a surfer in a barrel on the left and a skater getting air out of a half pipe on the right. It is unreal!

I have had so many people come through there in the past few weeks since she wrapped up and EVERY single person comments on how incredible the wall looks and asks who did that? Well her name is Carolee Merrill and she lives in HB and she has a bird on her shoulder named Tweety. It is quite the dynamic duo. You will find Carolee to be straight forward, pleasant and funny, fast, no haggling, fairly priced, incredibly talent, gives more than she was contracted to give and just an all around good human being. To anyone that is looking for a top notch artist in OC don’t look further than Carolee Merrill!” Mike Z. Irvine

Trompe L’oeil Mural – Muralist Carolee Merrill

Trompe L’oeil #Mural – #Muralist Carolee Merrill
Transforming a Water Heater into a British Phone Booth

Finished 1

Below is the testimonial from my client, Rich.

How can you hide a large, boxy, unrelocatable water heater-in-an-industrial-metal shed that’s about to become the centerpiece of your newly landscaped English backyard garden?

Turn the shed into a British telephone booth.

But how?

After nixing construction of an entirely new metal shed fabricated to look like an authentic K6, we sought out an artist to create more of a storybook-like interpretation. You’ve probably guessed that since this review is on Carolee’s page, we selected her. What you don’t know is we selected her completely on the merits of her web portfolio ďż˝ and an artist who started out as a stranger has now become a friend.

More significantly, her work, as well as her work ethic, turned out to be remarkable. And while no guest has (yet) drank enough to attempt a phone call, Carolee’s stunning finished art did achieve our goals of hiding the shed in plain sight, completing the yard, and eliciting smiles from all who enter.

If you are considering Carolee, you would be wise to call her. She gets it. Really.

Tuscany Murals# – Muralist# Carolee Merrill

Posted on by

vineyardI have painted many Tuscany murals throughout Orange County and Los Angeles County. This one is in Newport Beach in a private residence.  I painted it just after visiting Tuscany, and imbued the mural with my lovey experience.

I am fortunate to have visited Tuscany several times in my life for about three weeks each visit.  I am completely enamored with Tuscany- the lush Tuscan landscape reminiscent of Renaissance paintings, the friendly people, the wonderful food and wine.  Loved it all!

I have twenty years experience painting murals and signs. I have transformed the walls of hospitals, restaurants, hotels, churches, corporate offices, and private residences throughout California and Washington. Please contact me for a complimentary consultation.

“Carolee, thank you so much.  We are very pleased with the work that you did. You were diligent, punctual and precise in creating just what we wanted. We would be very happy to have you paint murals for us in the future.” – Judy Cruz, Property Management for Rite Aid
Here are murals that I painted for Rite Aid in Pasadena.  Rite Aid had wanted me to brighten a dark corridor from the parking lot to the stores.  The theme was the orange crate labels from the 40’s. I incorporated the art of four orange crate labels, and recreated the feel of Pasadena with the mountains and orange groves from the 40’s. The customers love it!  Here is a video of the murals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3ROkYHMViA

I painted this mural for a client in Olympia, Washington. It is a reproduction of several Jan Brueghel 16th century paintings. This dome is in the master bathroom, which will give you an idea of the magnitude of the beautiful estate.  It had a library, a theater, a gymnasium and a museum.  My client owned these paintings which hung in the museum in his home.

This album also  has other European paintings and murals I have painted.in Los Angeles and Orange County.

“It is indeed a pleasure to give Carolee a recommendation for the quality of work performed and her pleasing cooperation. Carolee painted a ceiling dome in my residence in Olympia, Washington. Under difficult circumstances, she painted a wonderful mural without complaints and was very cooperative in her duties. Without reservation I recommend Carolee.” – Calvin Brach, Chief Executive Officer, KDOC-TV 56, Irvine, CA
