Before Nicolai 1992

Once upon a time...

there was an ugly old beige stucco house in Noe Valley.  In 1992 the new owners decided something had to be done.  Driving around San Francisco Ms. Debbie discovered murals were very popular, Not counting low maintance.
    One mural that impressed Debbie was painted by Nicolai.  Nicolai Larsen was very smart and put his name and phone number at the bottom of the mural.  Contact was made and after long deliberations Joshua, David and Debbie decided on the rainforest mural.  
    Nicolai with a lot of help from Precita Eyes created a mural that lasted over 22 years.
Then Ms Debbie said, "Time for a change".  Looking for something totally new Debbie put the word out and was shocked at the resistance to change.  With compromise in mind, (bowing to peer pressure) the rainforest theme stays.

    Next step, finding an artist.  There is definitely a story there but I am glad to announce Praire Prince accepted the commission with Nicolai's blessing.  Prairie has chosen artists Amanda Lynn and Lindsey Millikan to work along side him.  Check out their work.  Awesome is more than a word.
