Every wall says something.Art lets you choose what.
Bespoke murals for businesses, organisations and private homes.
Walls that turn a space into a place people remember.
Hi, I’m Kasia.
I paint murals for shops, offices, bars, cafés and hotels – and homes too.
Murals aren’t only about making something pretty. They’re about transforming a space – and that’s what creates a feeling that stays with you.
As a kid I got in trouble for drawing on walls. I never stopped – but now I know what I’m doing. As a professional art conservator, I spent years restoring wall paintings in European heritage buildings. That’s where I fell in love with walls – and with painting my own.
Now I bring that same care to new murals here in Queenstown.
People may forget what they ordered. Nobody forgets how they felt in the space.
- It makes your space unforgettable. A mural turns a space into an experience, and an experience is what people come back for.
- It brings people in. Murals get photographed, tagged and sent to group chats. Word of mouth, painted on the wall.
- It changes how the room feels. Colour and story set the mood the moment someone steps in, so people relax, look around and stay a little longer.
- It’s yours alone. Designed for your walls and your story, so nobody down the street has the same one.
- It rewards a second look. A new detail spotted on the next visit is a very good reason to come back.
Murals in New Zealand.
People walk in, look up and stay a little longer. Here are a few favourites from my portfolio.
Remarkable Sweet Shop
The brief: an optical illusion that makes the shop feel more cosy and magical. My imagination went wild – and the client loved it.
A lava river of melted fudge, candy and chocolate now runs the full length of the floor, with stepping-stone sweets so you can cross the whole shop without falling in.
Bare concrete became the reason people walk in. Kids slow down and stay longer, and some say it feels like stepping into Honeydukes – which was exactly the plan.
Spot the duck.
Te Atamira Playground – Onwards in Art!
A mural for the Te Atamira playground, celebrating the local creative community – a thank-you to the funders who made the playground possible.
A plain curved wall turned into a painted landmark, carrying the line “Onwards in Art!” through a tangle of leaves and figures.
A smiling flower sits at the heart of a branching plant, its leaves carry people painting, sculpting, dancing and weaving. A piwakawaka and a kereru hold up the ribbon while a huia and a South Island kokako look on.
Harakeke frames the lot – the same flax volunteers planted around the playground, and will one day harvest for weaving.
Spot the hidden duck.
Other projects.
Got a wall and an idea? That’s enough.
-
Get in touch
Share your idea, send a few photos of the space, and I’ll explain how the process works.
-
Meet the wall
We meet in person to talk through your vision. The site visit is free in the Queenstown area (further afield, it depends on the project).
-
Get an estimate
An estimated cost follows the visit. For bigger projects, I put together a moodboard first so we agree on a direction.
-
Lock it in
Happy with the estimate? A deposit secures your spot in my calendar and gets the design started.
-
See it before it’s painted
I design the concept and show it as a mockup in your actual space. We fine-tune it together, and once you’ve signed it off, you know exactly what’s coming before any paint goes on.
-
Paint
The fun part. I paint it – around your opening hours if needed.
Questions.
Anything not covered here, just ask.
Every wall is different. Size, surface, level of detail, inside or out, and timeline are the main factors.
If you have a budget in mind, tell me – I can shape the project to fit it.
From first chat to finished wall, a straightforward mural can take a couple of weeks. Bigger or more complex projects take longer. My calendar fills a couple of months ahead, so it’s worth getting in touch early.
Yes. I can work around the schedule of your business or family – early starts, evenings or weekends. We plan it from the start, as it affects timing and price.
My murals are designed to last years. Every surface gets its own plan: the right primers, paints and sealants for the substrate. Walls in direct sun get a UV-resistant varnish – murals need sunscreen in the New Zealand sun too. If a mural needs regular care, like a busy shop floor, I’ll tell you up front and can look after the touch-ups.
For the right project, yes – anywhere in New Zealand. Travel and accommodation are covered by the client.
I paint my own designs, made for your brief. I don’t paint other artists’ work (unless it’s something very special, like a museum copy of a historic painting).
No AI-generated designs.
If you have an unusual project in mind, ask anyway.
Yes. I can design a mural to be printed – on vinyl or wallpaper, for example – and prepare the files with all the technical requirements in mind, so it stays sharp at full size. I can work directly with your printer or installer. Printed murals can be a good option for rented spaces, tight timelines or surfaces that can’t be painted.
Probably. There’s a duck in my signature, and they have a habit of turning up in my murals – you might spot them hidden around.
