Murals are fired in
a kiln 3 or 4 times so they achieve incredible, brilliant color and
incredible, realistic detail that always create the "Wow"
factor!

All
painted tiles from Tile Art Ltd. are kiln-fired which guarantees
that the paint melts into the surface of the tile and becomes a part of
the surface of the tile itself.

Sandra Davenport saw this mural in Better Homes and
Gardens and wrote the magazine editor to say:
"After seeing
Paddy Dugan's work in Better Homes and Gardens magazine, I had a mural designed for my bathroom.
This is the one thing in my home I enjoy everyday
because it was created just for me...
no one in the world has anything like it" Sandra Davenport Annapolis,

"The fringe matches the ceiling
border,
colors were
selected from the fabric"
It's
easy to create a fun room!
A faux rug is the solution to creating whimsy with a little
trick to the eye
when people realize they are standing on
artwork....not a real "rug".
