I recently had the pleasure of working with Yurik on a ceiling mural for my office, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the result. From the outset, Yurik demonstrated exceptional professionalism, artistry, and a keen eye for detail. He listened carefully to my vision, and not only did they bring it to life, but he also exceeded every expectation. The mural itself is a stunning centerpiece that has transformed the entire space. The use of color, texture, and intricate design captures a sense of inspiration and elegance, which was exactly what I was hoping to achieve. Every visitor to my office is immediately drawn to its beauty, and it has become a conversation piece and a source of daily inspiration. Throughout the process, Yurik was punctual, respectful of the space, and meticulously clean. I appreciate his dedication to ensuring each brushstroke was perfect and their adaptability to any minor tweaks we discussed along the way. I wholeheartedly recommend Yurik to anyone seeking a true artist who combines technical skill with creative passion. This ceiling mural has enriched my office environment in ways I couldn't have imagined.

Hired on Thumbtack

We Hired Yurik for a mural in our soon to be daughters Nursery/Room. After a couple conversations and some pictures to help with the initial idea of which direction we wanted to go in he sent us a sketch that was exactly what we were looking for. Now that the piece is done we love it. Yurik was Polite and kept us informed of the direction he was going in as well as checking to make sure we were still happy through the process. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect Storybook mural with little baby dragons as the main focus.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
One painting or mural might have a high level of detail or a particularly time consuming thing to paint and another might not. And so a conversation is always necessary first.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I will usually have a short conversation with a customer over the phone, to connect and understand exactly what the customer wants. I can then work up an estimate and a contract for that work. Once we have an agreement and a down payment, the work gets scheduled and done. The customer loves their new artwork or mural!
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
The quality of an artist's portfolio is probably the single most important thing to consider. It is more important than slick ad copy. Also a lot of customers are impressed by either really branded headshot of the artist or professional photos of art that is actually very simple to paint. The artist may need to have considerable talent to accomplish the task that you need them to complete, so do yourself a favor and hire someone with skill!
