Posted by on Thursday, February 26th, 2015 at 9:10pm.

If you really want to add some spice to your home and make it your own consider getting a home mural on one of your walls. This is a great way to add some individuality to your home and it can add a dramatic effect to any room. If you're looking for a fun project that you can do while the weather is still cool outside, find out more about these murals.

The price

You'll be given a number of different quotes from different Calgary artists when you decide to get estimates. Some people are just starting to paint murals and will give you a lower price while they are building up a portfolio. Others are more experienced and can charge a much higher amount. Somewhere between $500 and $5000 is the expected amount you'll have to pay.

The complexity of the project

Of course, there will be a big difference in the estimates based on the complexity of the mural. If, for instance, you are just going to get a logo of a hockey team in your child's bedroom, you'll end up paying a lot less than what you'd have to pay for an intricate picture. There will also be a higher cost for materials if there are a lot of colours in the mural.

The artist

Paying a lot of money for an established artist is not always the best route to take. Art is a personal thing and if you don't like a certain artist's portfolio, you should move on to another. Every artist is going to interpret a piece of art in his own way. Even if you are presenting a picture that you want to be copied there will be variances between artists. The tone, colours and small details will differ from one mural artist to the next.

When choosing an artist, look at his previous artwork and see if it blends with your own personal taste. Then consider your budget and how much you are willing to pay. There are some great artists available for this type of work that don't necessarily charge high-end prices but will still deliver the best mural that matches your style and preferences.
