Shower Wall Mural Installation Options

My large shower murals have gained popularity all over the world for their ability to transformed any bathroom into a tropical escape from everyday life.

I have two installation options available. Inlay and Overlay.

Inlaid:
My wall mural pieces are either inlaid into your wall tiles prior to their installation during construction or renovation.

Overlaid:
Mural pieces are thinner and have tapered edges. They are installed using marine grade 2 part epoxy to the surface of your existing tile and the edges are grouted. The finished mural appears inlaid, but with thinner looking grout joints around it.

I am the only mural artist who offers this option.
