Murals in Palma de Mallorca
In 1956, after years of travelling, Joan Miró settled in Mallorca and had the studio of his dreams built, designed from Harvard by his friend the architect Josep Lluís Sert, with whom he exchanged letters. Miró painted there until his death; the foundation created in 1981 with Pilar Juncosa holds six thousand works. The Paseo del Born, together with Calle Sant Feliu and Avenida Jaume III, forms Palma de Mallorca’s prime shopping axis, with examples of local architecture such as the Casal Solleric. Santa Catalina, close to the centre, is one of the city’s most sought-after districts. Giulia paints in Palma de Mallorca for renovated apartments, hotels and boutiques.
What Giulia brings to Palma de Mallorca. Giulia is a painter, trained at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan. She exhibits her paintings in art galleries and also paints on walls. Corriere della Sera, Domus and Sky Arte have covered her work, and her mural of more than twenty metres dedicated to Gaber and Jannacci stands in Milan. The wall is her favourite canvas because it truly becomes part of a place, a unique work made to tell your story.
What Giulia brings to Palma de Mallorca
In the cathedral, Antoni Gaudí worked from 1904 to 1914: he moved the choir, opened the view onto the apse and hung above the altar a canopy of iron, glass and papier-mâché. A century later, Miquel Barceló covered a chapel with 300 square metres of ceramic, unveiled on 2 February 2007.
Palma is therefore a cathedral where two artists were given leave to remake the interior, a century apart. Giulia Dal Bon paints there with a brush, in the palaces of the centre, the hotels, the restaurants and the villas, using odourless acrylic indoors and quartz paint with an anti-salt varnish on the seaward side. From 150 € per sqm, free quote within 48 hours.
In Palma de Mallorca, Giulia also paints live in front of an audience: a wedding, a hotel evening or a private party. The canvas starts blank and ends signed, ready to hang. From 950 € for a wedding, from 400 € for a performance. See live painting →
Your questions, before commissioning
A photo of the wall, its approximate dimensions and the idea you have in mind are enough to receive a quote.

How does it work to have a wall painted in Palma de Mallorca?
Write to Giulia Dal Bon on WhatsApp or by email, even if the idea is still vague: she replies within 48 hours. Send her a photo of the wall to be painted, she draws a sketch straight onto your photo, you tell her what you think, and the first two sketches are free. Once the sketch is approved, she sends you the quote, from 150 € per sqm in Palma de Mallorca, and sets the date with you. She then comes and paints the mural at your place in Palma de Mallorca, by brush, and the place stays open while she works.
What does a mural quote in Palma de Mallorca cover?
The square-metre price Giulia Dal Bon quotes includes the paint and materials, the first two sketches and the protective varnish as a finish. While she paints, you tell her what you think, and she adjusts. Added to the quote, when needed, are the scaffolding for a facade and travel costs, agreed together. The quote is free and arrives within 48 hours; a deposit of about 100 € for materials confirms the date, and the balance is settled at the end.
I’d like a mural or a painting on a wall of my home in Palma de Mallorca, who should I contact?
Giulia Dal Bon, a painter trained at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan. She paints murals by brush in homes, bedrooms, bathrooms, on terraces, pool walls and facades, and travels in Palma de Mallorca as she does across Europe. Send her a photo of the wall, its approximate dimensions and your idea, however loose: she replies within 48 hours with a quote and a first proposal. The first two sketches are free. The guide Who to hire to have a wall painted helps you prepare your request for a wall in Palma de Mallorca.
Can I see a design before commissioning the mural?
Always. You receive a sketch set on a photo of your own wall, to scale, together with the quote. The first two sketches are free: Giulia shows the work in progress, you give your opinion, and she adjusts. You confirm when you are ready.
Will a mural damage the wall?
The paint goes onto the plaster already in place. In most cases a dusting down is all that is needed before starting. If the surface has cracks or rising damp, Giulia points it out before quoting and proposes the preparation required. Indoors she uses an odourless acrylic: a child’s bedroom in use or a restaurant that stays open can both be painted. An acrylic mural can later be painted over like any wall paint, if you change your mind in ten years.
When is the best time to paint a mural in Palma de Mallorca?
All year round. Indoors the odourless acrylic lets the room stay in use while she works, in January as in July. Outdoors she needs a dry wall and a mild temperature. Giulia sets the date with you when she quotes, within 48 hours, and gives plenty of notice if the schedule moves.
Can a view of Palma de Mallorca be painted on a wall?
Yes. Three or four landmarks are enough to recognise it. The golden sandstone cathedral facing the sea, the courtyards of the town palaces, the windmills and the bay opening in front. Giulia Dal Bon draws them, then paints them, by hand. The line alone falls under 150 € per sqm, the painted version under 250 €. Free quote within 48 hours.
What subject works well for a mural in Palma de Mallorca?
In Palma de Mallorca, the Casco Antiguo apartments lend themselves to Mediterranean botanical motifs, figurative subjects or a trompe l’oeil that uses the ceiling height. Everything is painted with a brush, in odourless acrylic.
What is the difference between a hand-painted mural and spray-painted graffiti?
Two gestures, two finishes. The spray can gives a fast, graphic line. The brush lays colour down layer after layer, which opens up gradients, fine detail and trompe l’oeil: the mural becomes a painting on the wall. In Palma de Mallorca, Giulia Dal Bon works with a brush, in odourless acrylic indoors, and the place stays open while she paints. The choice comes down to the finish you are after.
What do you call an artist who paints on walls?
A muralist, a mural artist or a decorative painter. In Palma de Mallorca, Giulia Dal Bon paints by hand with a brush, from apartments to façades: trained at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan, she exhibits her paintings in art galleries and also paints on walls. The same searches go through wall mural, hand-painted wall or wall art. Send a photo of your wall, and the quote arrives within 48 hours.
Does a mural hold up outdoors in Palma de Mallorca?
Yes, with surface preparation and paints made for outdoor use. Sea air calls for an anti-salt primer and a UV-resistant finish.
Do I need permission to paint a facade in Palma de Mallorca?
An interior wall can be painted freely. For a facade visible from the street, you generally need the owner’s or building association’s agreement, and a notice to the municipality if the building sits in a protected zone: many buildings in the historic centre are protected. Giulia explains the process before starting.
How long does it take to paint a mural?
It depends on the surface, the level of detail and how easy the wall is to reach. Giulia gives the timing with the quote, within 48 hours, and gives plenty of notice if the schedule moves. The place keeps running while she works: the acrylic is odourless.
How long does a mural last?
An acrylic mural by Giulia Dal Bon lasts a lifetime indoors: the paint becomes part of the plaster and lives as long as the wall. Outdoors, quartz paint is made for facades, and an anti-salt or anti-pollution varnish extends it further. And if one day you want a change, it can be painted over like any wall paint.

Where Giulia works in Palma de Mallorca
In Palma de Mallorca, Giulia paints on an interior wall : the living room, the bedroom and the kitchen. She also paints the bathroom, the entrance and the hallway. The ceiling is painted too: that is the €350 per sqm band, with trompe-l’oeil. Outside, she switches to quartz paint on the exterior facade. She also paints on a mobile panel, when the wall belongs to someone else.
She paints in venues as different as apartment and boutique, and in hotel.
From the Casco Antiguo to the Paseo del Born, by way of Santa Catalina, Giulia paints all over Palma de Mallorca. A photo of the wall and its dimensions are enough to start: Giulia draws the sketch straight onto it.
The subject is decided together. A landscape opens up the far end of a room, a floral or botanical motif runs along a wall, a painted sky fills a ceiling, a perspective trompe-l’oeil draws a window on a solid wall. Giulia also paints figures, animals, lettering, painted signs, and reproduces an existing work when you ask her to.
Possible subjects in Palma de Mallorca: the windmills and the bay opening in front, the golden sandstone cathedral facing the sea, the courtyards of the town palaces. A trompe-l’oeil window, a botanical motif and a painted sky work just as well.
Very different words lead to the same search: mural, wall mural, artistic painting on a wall, wall decoration, mural decoration, decorative painting. Trompe-l’oeil is one form of it, a hand-painted wall and a drawing on a wall are others, and some look for a painting made directly on the wall. Behind those words, one craft in Palma de Mallorca: mural artist, muralist, wall artist, decorative painter.
The Paseo del Born, with Calle Sant Feliu and Avenida Jaume III, forms the prime shopping axis of Palma de Mallorca.
Giulia also travels throughout the Balearic Islands.
