Hand Painted Murals & Glass Painting Across Europe
Your walls could look like everyone else's.
Or they could become something nobody else has.
There is a strange moment that happens when you walk into a beautiful restaurant, hotel, shop or home and immediately reach for your phone.
It is rarely because of the white walls.
The spaces we remember are the ones that have something of their own. Something you cannot find in another restaurant three streets away, order from an interior design catalogue, or reproduce by changing the furniture.
Original art can do that.
I create original, hand-painted murals and window/glass art for private homes, hospitality venues, retail spaces, and offices.
Every project is custom-painted by hand with no printed materials, vinyl graphics, or catalog reproductions. Based in Europe, commissions are available for selected projects across the continent.
If you have been looking at an empty wall for months thinking something should happen there, this might be it.
I am based in Europe and available to travel for selected mural and glass painting commissions throughout Europe.
Original Art, Created Directly on Your Walls
Painting on a wall differs completely from studio work because the room becomes part of the art.
Proportions, furniture, light, and entryway sightlines all influence the approach.
Rather than simply making a very large painting, every piece is created for a specific place.
Depending on the space, this might mean an expressive full-wall composition or a restrained, interactive design.
Styles range from bold, Pop Art-inspired colours to playful, elegant, or unexpected themes.
Without a catalogue of pre-made designs, the process begins with your space, your idea, and the desired atmosphere to create something that truly belongs there.
Hand Painted Murals for Homes
Painting inside a home offers a uniquely personal experience.
Unlike commercial spaces designed to impress strangers, a home only needs to feel right for the people who live there, offering enormous creative freedom.
A custom mural can completely transform a living room, make a bedroom feel intimate, or turn a child's room magical without mass-produced decor.
It can wrap around corners, follow staircases, or anchor empty walls. Furthermore, it doesn't have to dominate a room; a carefully positioned piece of art is often more powerful than covering every centimetre.
Compositions are designed around the unique architecture and personality of each home across living rooms, bedrooms, children's spaces, dining areas, home offices, hallways, and staircases.
Or you can simply send me a photograph and say:
"Cristina, I have no idea what to do with this wall."
Both are perfectly good places to begin.
Commercial Murals for Spaces That Don't Want to Be Forgettable
Commercial spaces face a new challenge. While beautiful cafés and hotels are everywhere, standing out requires more than standard design.
Original, hand-painted murals offer something unique to a business. Created specifically for the location, they introduce brand personality without looking like ads, transforming empty walls into striking visual anchors that define a room.
Best of all, compelling artwork naturally draws attention. People photograph and share it, linking the imagery directly to the business's identity.
While algorithms shouldn't drive design, creating something genuinely worth looking at is a powerful place to start.
Restaurants, Cafés, Bars and Hotels
Hospitality spaces are ideal for murals because they have an active audience that notices details and returns over time.
Whether it's a dramatic dining wall, an interactive bar, a playful café, or a sophisticated boutique hotel, custom artwork avoids universal formulas to ensure spaces are memorable.
The design can draw inspiration from your location, food, brand, or architecture—or move away from them entirely to create something striking. Ultimately, the goal isn't just filling a wall, but giving the room something entirely new.
Murals for Shops, Salons, Offices and Commercial Interiors
Retail and commercial spaces offer a unique canvas that shapes the customer experience from the moment they enter, whether by drawing attention to specific areas, framing counters, transforming fitting rooms, or creating photo spots.
Offices require a different approach, helping combat the sterile, safe feel of white walls and corporate logos by introducing a human element. Artwork can subtly reference the company or simply give employees a more engaging environment.
Work can be done directly with business owners or in collaboration with interior designers, architects, and creative agencies to integrate artwork into a wider design concept.
Hand Painted Windows and Glass
Walls are only part of what I paint.
I also create original hand painted artwork on glass, including shop windows, restaurant and café windows, interior glass partitions, glass doors, mirrors and other suitable glass surfaces.
Glass behaves very differently from a wall.
Light passes through it. Reflections change throughout the day. People see the artwork from different directions and the street or interior behind it becomes part of the composition.
That makes glass a fascinating surface to work with.
For street facing businesses, painted windows can also completely change the way the location feels from outside.
Instead of another printed promotional sticker competing with every other sign on the street, the window itself becomes something people notice.
The painting can be permanent or created for a temporary installation, depending on the project and surface.
Seasonal Window Painting
Christmas is an obvious opportunity, but certainly not the only one.
I can create temporary hand painted window artwork for Christmas, Valentine's Day, Easter, spring and summer campaigns, Halloween, product launches, store openings, events and other seasonal moments.
This works particularly well for shops, cafés, restaurants, hotels and businesses with visible street frontage.
There is something particularly charming about seeing an artist actually paint a shop window by hand.
It feels less commercial.
More human.
And in a world where almost everything we see has been printed, generated, reproduced or displayed on a screen, that difference is becoming increasingly noticeable.
A project can be in Bucharest, Vienna, Budapest, Berlin, Prague, Milan, Paris, Amsterdam, Barcelona or a small town I have never visited before.
The process can begin entirely online.
You send me photographs and videos of the space, measurements and information about the project. We develop the idea remotely, agree on the artistic direction and organise the practical details before I travel.
For international commissions, travel and accommodation are calculated according to the location, duration and requirements of the project.
For larger commercial projects, I can also coordinate directly with your interior designer, architect, contractor or project manager before arriving.
So please don't decide that you are "too far away" before contacting me.
If the project makes sense, we can usually figure out the geography.
How a Mural Is Created
It starts with your space, not a catalogue. Send photos, a quick video, and approximate dimensions of the wall, along with your location and vision—whether you have a detailed brief or just a blank wall.
Understanding & Developing the Concept
We discuss what the artwork needs to achieve, aligning with your personal tastes, hospitality atmosphere, or commercial brand guidelines. Next, we use references (art, fashion, interiors) not to copy, but to build an original artistic direction.
Visualising & Preparing
Sketches or visual proposals establish the composition, proportions, and colors—ideal for commercial approvals. Before painting, the wall must be clean and stable, scheduled carefully around any construction timelines.
The Painting Process
I paint the mural entirely by hand directly onto the surface. Through hours of layering, stepping back, and refining, the work evolves until it feels right in the actual space, backed by a clear estimated schedule.
What Does a Custom Mural Cost?
Because every mural commission is unique, pricing cannot be reduced to a simple cost per square metre. A detailed design requires more time than a large, simple composition.
Quotes are calculated individually based on scale, complexity, detail level, surface type, accessibility, materials, preparation, and estimated time—plus travel for out-of-area projects and special scheduling requirements for commercial sites.
To get an accurate price, simply show the wall with a few photos, approximate dimensions, location, and your vision.
Tell Me About Your Wall
If you are thinking about commissioning an original mural or hand painted glass artwork, send me photographs of the space, its approximate dimensions, your city and country, and anything you can tell me about the idea.
It doesn't need to be a finished concept.
A photograph and "I want something incredible here" is enough to start.
I work with homeowners, restaurants, hotels, cafés, shops, offices, interior designers, architects, creative agencies and commercial clients throughout Europe.
If you have an idea that you would like me to paint for you don't hesitate to contact me and tell me more about it.
