Here’s mural I did last year that I finally got pictures of. It features one of the lifts at that ski area. It also has, in the upper left corner, the Wild Rainiers, a much-loved ad campaign for Rainier Beer, that had people in beer bottle costumes running around in the woods. And in the lower right corner, hiding in the trees, a yeti. Not a Sasquatch, as you would expect in the Northwest, but a yeti.

This is a mural I did a few years ago for a church in California. To give you an idea of scale, these are 6” tiles. Most of the children in the picture are children in the congregation. I’ve done a number of custom tile murals for churches and would love to do more. If you know of a church that’s building or remodeling, or would like to add a tile mural, please have them contact me.

This little mural got installed really quickly after it arrived. Sometimes these things take years, or months, but this one went up right away. It features the view from the home in California, with plants in the foreground from the garden there.

Here’s another image from my catalogue. I’ve done this one several times as you can see on my Shop page, https://www.paullewingtile.com/shop/heron-friends. There’s a picture of this mural installed in a kitchen.

This picture was recently sent to me by someone who had bought this mounted tile piece at an estate sale. The seller had the original receipt from 1995. She paid $295 for it then. It sold at the estate sale for $250. See how art work appreciates over time? This is a picture of Waptus Lake in the Alpine Lakes Wilderness Area, and it’s all different cone 5 oxidation glazes.

Here’s a really old one! I was at an art fair over the weekend and a woman came in and said I’d done a mural for her and her husband many years ago. I certainly remembered them because the guy took care of the hornbills at the Woodland Park Zoo. So she sent me this picture. It still looks good, but I can sure tell that my style has changed over the years.

This is this year’s senior class tile for the high school near Spokane. I’ve done this for them every year since 2006. Each year they have a contest among the seniors to design a tile for their class, which is displayed on a wall in the school cafeteria. It’s not a big impressive project like some of the bathrooms at https://www.paullewingtile.com/bathrooms, but it’s a fun project.

Here’s another oldie but goodie. This client showed me this famous piece of South African rock art and wanted me to incorporate it into a story that encompassed the whole of her walk-in shower. It’s called The Hunt, and as it continues around the room, it represents hunting, death, rebirth, courtship, hunting, and death again.

I don’t often reproduce commercial tile but there were enough of these to make it worth while, 110 of the square ones and 120 of the bullnose. I had decals made for the black outlines and then hand colored the spaces. I shouldn’t have counted how many spaces that is, but counting two coats on all of them, there were 12,660 of them. The original are by themselves to the right. To see some bathrooms more like what I usually do, go to https://www.paullewingtile.com/bathrooms.

Here’s another nice custom tile bathroom mural from the archives. It’s state of the art handicapped accessible and the clients specified “no snakes, no bats”. But there are frogs.
