More than a pretty picture

While it’s true murals are a work of art, they can also be a powerful tool. Murals can help differentiate your business, inspire your team, grow your brand, or simply create an uplifting environment.

Stand out from the crowd

Separate yourself from the rest with a design made specifically for your needs and space. Give passersby a reason to stop and stare.

Ignite inspiration

Create an environment that radiates positivity and inspiration. Transform your empty walls into eye-catching focal points.

Build awareness

Grab attention, stay top of mind, and increase engagement. A mural is a no-brainer if you’re looking for an Instagrammable moment.

About the Artist

Hello, and welcome! My name is Mari Jamaleldine Davis, and I’m the owner and artist behind Ahlan Creative Studio. I live in Austin, TX with my partner, two kiddos, and our dog.

Creating art is in my DNA - several generations of my family included artists. Coloring was my favorite childhood activity, and my very first job was working at an art studio. I went on to study graphic design in undergrad followed by business in grad school where I earned an MBA with an emphasis in brand management. My corporate career has always involved some element of creativity and project management - both of which are required for designing and painting successful murals.

My art is inspired by my lived experiences as a woman and Arab-American. I’m always thrilled when an opportunity allows for me to incorporate a style or motifs that celebrate Arab culture. However, I’m just as comfortable working within your brand guidelines or adapting to whatever style is most appropriate for the project at hand. I can’t wait to bring your vision to life!

The Mural Process

Use the form linked below to send me information on your mural needs. Once I receive your information, I’ll reach out with any follow up questions before providing a free quote for my services.
Once you approve the quote, the next step will be to sign the contract to ensure we’re all on the same page about the project expectations. A 50% deposit is required to hold a spot on the calendar and for any design work to begin.
After a kickoff call and site visit, I'll create a mood board that represents the style and color you’re looking for. I'll also provide two sketch concepts for you to choose from. The mood board and chosen concept will determine the creative direction for the final art.
Using the established creative direction, I’ll get to work on the full design. You’ll be able to make two rounds of revisions at this stage before we land on the final art. You'll also receive a mockup of this final art on your wall(s) to give you an idea of how it will look in the space.
Using the final art, I’ll secure the paint, supplies, and any special equipment required. Then it’s time for the fun part - showing up in person to prepare the space and start painting!
