release. Please feel free to let me know if there is anything else you think
might be added. I will have this done today and posted.
Los Angeles, CA July 27,
2007-Today popular fashion and decorating trends are being heightened
by the sudden increase of shows that determine items that will be “the next big
thing”. Wall Murals have become one of the hottest trends in home and office
decorating. Over 100 million viewers tune into the popular TV shows that cater
to today's growing, “do-it-yourself” market. Shows such as 'Queer Eye for the
Straight Guy', Discovery Channel's, ‘Trading Spaces' and ABC's ‘Extreme
Makeover – Home Edition,' have supported the demand for decorative murals.
Mural painting is a dramatic and affordable way
to customize or transform an interior or exterior space. A
mural is a one-of-a-kind work of art that is uniquely tailored
to the desire of the client as interpreted through the expert hand and eye
of the skilled artist. Murals are perhaps the most unique way to decorate both
inside and outside the home or office. Unlike mass-produced wallpaper or flat
paint, they are created purely from the imaginations of homeowners and artists.
In the past, murals have mainly been accessible only to the very
rich, but now the art form is available to anyone who wishes to have an
original work of art for their home
With the rise in popularity of murals there is a
great demand for mural artists. Many people don't know where to begin their
search for the right mural artist. Sites such as FindaMuralist.com have fueled
the connection between client and muralist.
Find a Muralist.com (FAM) is a web referral service whose purpose is to
simplify the way clients seeking murals locate artists best qualified to serve

budget. FAM then generates a list of 3
qualified mural artists in the client's vicinity. In many cases, the client can receive free
