EVERY MOUNTAIN TOWN DESERVES ART
MURALS FOR SCHOOLS, BUSINESSES & TOWNS
UP AND DOWN THE 285 CORRIDOR
ART THAT CONNECTS.
Mountain towns are small. Everybody drives past the same walls every day.
A mural changes what those walls say. Who lives here. What runs wild here. What we’re proud of.
I paint bighorns, wildflowers, peaks, mascots and the stories your town already tells about itself. Then I hand people a brush. Students. Neighbors. Kids who’ve never touched a wall that size.
That’s the part that sticks. They don’t just look at it. They own it.
Who I Paint For
Schools. Hallways, stairwells, columns and cafeterias. Murals and full-year artist residencies, designed with your students. See school murals and residencies.
Local businesses. Storefronts, feature walls, patios and back-alley brick. A wall people stop to photograph is a business people remember.
Towns, rec centers and neighborhoods. Rec centers, libraries, trailheads and HOA entrance signs. Public art that makes a place feel like yours.
How It Works
1. Walkthrough. I come out, look at the wall, the light and the foot traffic. You tell me what you want it to say. Free.
2. Mockup. I paint the design onto a photo of your actual wall, so you see it before a drop of paint goes up.
3. Estimate. One clear number. Easily laid out in manageable steps.
4. Paint. On site, scheduled around your school day or business hours. Community hands join for the finishing touches when the project calls for it.
5. Seal and reveal. UV-protective varnish so it holds up to mountain sun. Then we show it off.
Now painting: a bighorn ram mural at Evergreen Middle School and an anatomical mountain scene at South Park High School.
What it costs:
Every wall is quoted after a free walkthrough.
50% deposit to book; balance when it's done.
Who’s painting
I’m Cristina Link. Muralist, painter, former K–12 art teacher. I live in Pine, in Park County, and I paint up and down 285.
BFA from the School of Visual Arts. Master’s in Art Education. Colorado teaching license. I know how to work inside a school or a busy shop without wrecking anyone’s day.
FUND A WALL:
No budget? Most of my walls aren’t paid for by one person. They’re paid for by a town.
Commission a Mural. Principals, PTAs, business owners, rec centers and HOAs: I’ll walk your space, create a custom design mockup, and give you a clear estimate before anything is booked.
Sponsor a Wall. Local businesses put their name behind a mural in their own town. Lead sponsors get a sign beside the wall and a public thank-you at the reveal.
Contribute. Chip in toward a specific wall. Every level below goes directly toward paint, sealant and artist time on a school or community mural.
