Norfolk Muralist

Matthew Jackson has been painting murals for Norfolk schools, museums, and public spaces for over 20 years. Based 25 minutes away in Virginia Beach, he's available for on-site consultation across Norfolk with no out-of-area surcharge — and his portfolio in the city includes one of its more visible cultural installations: the murals at the Norfolk Children's Museum.

Norfolk's mix of historic architecture, naval heritage, and growing arts scene makes it a particularly rewarding place to paint. Matthew has worked with public-school districts in the city and on private commercial commissions, scaling from interior accent walls to multi-room installations.

How a Norfolk project works

Send photos of the surface, rough dimensions, and a sentence about what you'd like painted — Matthew can usually drive over for an in-person walk-through within a few days, or work from photos if a remote quote is preferred. Concept sketches arrive 1-2 weeks after an accepted quote, and most interior murals are painted in 3-7 days on site.
