One rate, with few exceptions

The same price per square metre applies in every country where Giulia paints. The exceptions: Switzerland, Denmark and Sweden, billed in the local currency at that market's level, and a small number of prestige destinations, listed above.

Every project is welcome, in every country: a small wall in a child's bedroom is as welcome a project as a large facade.

A concrete example

A 10 m² wall with a simple floral motif: around €1,500. The same wall with a very detailed design: around €2,500. With an elaborate trompe-l'oeil: around €3,500.

What makes the quote vary

The surface to paint, the complexity of the subject, indoor or outdoor, the condition of the wall before preparation, the height and whether scaffolding is needed.

To get a quote, send a photo of the wall, the approximate dimensions and the idea you have in mind. Giulia travels easily, in Europe and beyond: travel and accommodation terms are agreed together at quoting time.

More questions about price

I’d like a mural in my home — how much will it cost me?

The rate is per square metre: 150 € for a simple floral or botanical motif, 250 € for a detailed or figurative subject, 350 € for a trompe l’oeil, a ceiling or a large composition. A 6 m² bedroom wall with a botanical motif therefore comes to around 900 €, a 12 m² living room wall with a landscape to around 3,000 €. Every project is welcome, from a small wall to a large facade.

What does a graffiti artist charge, and why does a brush-painted mural cost what it does?

They are two different crafts. A graffiti artist works with spray cans, with a fast gesture and a graphic finish. A brush-painted mural is built layer by layer, which allows gradients, fine detail and trompe l’oeil: it is a painting made directly on the wall. Indoors, Giulia uses odourless acrylic. And while she paints, people take the time to watch: a brush at work is a show in itself. A brush takes more hours than a spray can, and that time is what the square-metre rate reflects.

What do you call an artist who paints on walls?

A mural artist, a muralist, a wall artist or a decorative painter, and the art itself is called mural painting or wall art. Some come from graffiti and work with spray cans; Giulia Dal Bon comes from painting: trained at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan, she exhibits her paintings in art galleries and paints commissioned murals with a brush.
