Meet the Artists

David Schmeikal

A rich tapestry of 15 years immersed in design, brand and strategy. David's earliest memories is of wielding a pencil, sketching and doodling ideas that explore his imagination.

David finds a unique liberation in the vastness of walls and the power they hold to amplify messages and narratives.

When he's not painting, he embraces his role as a coach and poet, guiding people to unlock their creative potential.

Maya Corona

With 2 decades in the dynamic realm of graphic design, Maya made a pivotal shift in 2019 to embrace her inner painter. She's contributed to over 20 group exhibitions.

Her true fulfillment lies in connecting people through art and she loves any opportunity to infuse public spaces with a sense of wonder that invites viewers to pause, reflect and engage with the world in a new light.

    I have had the pleasure of working with Maya on a number of different projects. Maya’s background in design and communications amplifies her creativity and gives her an understanding of project goals greater than most visual artists might have.

    We also worked together on a 20 x 8 ft sea container in partnership with The Crescent Heights Community Association. This mural design integrates the two brands and Maya did amazing work that represents who we are. We love it.

  • Sawa Cafe "Mount placent"

    We had the pleasure of collaborating with Maya Corona for a mural at Sawa Cafe in 2021, and the results are simply stunning. Maya's unique blend of design expertise and community engagement brought our vision to life. The 40 x 15 ft mural, created through a community grant, is not just a work of art; it's a symbol of unity and creativity. Our patrons love it, and it has become a standout feature in our space. Maya's talent and collaborative approach make her a top choice for transforming spaces into visual masterpieces. Highly recommended!

    Maya has outdone herself with her beautiful mural for our daughter Emilia and her beloved spiritual animal, the dragon. We are immensely grateful for Maya's artistic talent, as the mural captures the essence of Emilia's connection with her spiritual animal and adds a vibrant and feminine touch to her room.

    The use of colours in the mural is nothing short of extraordinary. Maya's choice of hues is visually stunning and harmonizes perfectly with the overall theme. The dragon portrayed is a magnificent addition to our family, and Emilia absolutely adores it.

    Thank you, Maya, for creating a masterpiece that has brought joy and enchantment to our home. We appreciate your skill, attention to detail, and the personal touch you added to make the mural a cherished part of our lives. Emilia loves her dragon, and we couldn't be happier with the delightful and colourful addition you've made to our family space.

OUR MURAL PAINTING PROCESS

Step 1:

Scoping the Space

Time: 1-2 hours on site

We conduct an on-site visit to ensure a thorough understanding of the space, taking measurements and capturing images. This is your opportunity to share any ideas or preferences you have for the mural's design.

Step 2:

Ideating and Sketching

Time: 1-2 weeks

We immerse ourselves in brainstorming, doodling, and sketching, developing mood boards and exploring color palettes. You'll receive three concepts, each mocked up on photos of your walls, allowing you to visualize the final result before painting begins.

Step 3:

Review and Elevate Mural Designs

Time: 1-2 hours on site

Before our second meeting, we'll send over the concepts for your review. During this stage, you can select your preferred design or request any changes or additions. All concepts are presented in full color to aid in selecting the perfect palette.

Step 4:

Site Prep and Supply Stocking

Time: 1-2 weeks

We prepare the site for painting, which may involve installing scaffolding and completing any necessary wall repairs or treatments. Depending on access and scheduling, a painting timetable may be established.

Step 5:

Time to Paint!

Time: 2-3 weeks

With everything prepared and approved, it's time to bring your vision to life! We work in focused time blocks of 3-5 hours, adjusting based on the mural's complexity and if weather conditions are a factor.
