Gulf Coast Car & Truck Center, Gulfport, MS              With temperatures exceeding 100 degrees and fighting typical southern afternoon thunder showers, the Gulf Coast Car & Truck murals took a total of three weeks to complete. Painted directly on the block wall, the Texaco Gas Pump makes the grout lines disappear! The main wall at Gulf Coast Car & Truck Center in Gulfport, Mississippi is 46' x 14'. The wall to the left of the bay door is 26' x 14'. The Client wanted a mural to reflect the Mississippi Gulf Coast and the nostalgia of the classic automobile service department.   After the terrible destruction caused in Gulfport by Hurricane Katrina in August 2005, we decided to create a tribute to the spirit and the historical significance of the beautiful homes and the spirit of the working man in this lovely area.

	Tropical Nostalgic Murals Sell Collectible Autos and Motorcycles at Park Auto Mall West, St. Petersburg, FL Park Auto Mall West, located in Seminole, needed a theme to attract customers to come in and see their collectible autos and motorcycles housed inside, while keeping the feeling of the beach, surf and sand. Adding a tropical mural setting with nostalgic trompe l'oeil gas pumps, the free-wheeling feeling of the '60's and a classic hand-painted Ford Mustang achieved the owner's vision.
