Richard Harrison founded the mural company in 1999 and it has since grown to include the work of over a dozen artists. Their work began with private commissions, schools, churches, and nursing homes and has grown into the public art sphere with their South Omaha Mural Project. The project is an initiative to create community murals about the diverse historic immigrant neighborhoods of South Omaha. Each of the ten murals was created with hundreds of community designers and volunteers. Richard and his team are skilled in all varieties of specialty painting and pride themselves in their flexibility and creative design solutions.
