Raising hopes and homes on Long Islands south shore and improving the appearance with murals

The after math of hurricane Sandy left an enormous amount of homes devastated as well as unsavable, many homes were left with the great task of raising their homes. After the homes are raised often on cement, or cement pilings people are left with an 8 foot slab or multiple collumns. In recent months I have been commissioned by a great many homeowners looking to beautify these concrete slabs. We just finished a slab 30 feet by 8 feet in Island Park area that faces a canal, we did a simple tropical scene complete with water , sky and palm trees. Exterior grade latex paints were used and the results are a very pretty alternative to an otherwise ugly wall. These murals are affordable and last an average of 10 years with out major touch ups. As always murals add a feel of custom artwork to any space interior or exterior, but in the case of raised homes on Long Islands decimated south shore these murals also offer an expression of hope and strength that these homes are done and finally passed the storm. for more murals see my website at
