Commissioning a mural in Malibu, California works best as a real project: a clear design phase, a scoped wall, and a professional process from first sketch to final coat — not a spray-paint favor. Corey Barksdale is an Atlanta-based muralist and fine artist who takes on mural, live-painting, and public art commissions nationwide, including projects in Malibu.
Muralist for hire in Malibu
Malibu's coastal, understated luxury sets a different tone than nearby LA — commissions here tend to be private estate work or subtle, high-quality pieces for hospitality spaces rather than large public-facing walls.
What working with Corey Barksdale looks like
Every project starts with a conversation about the wall, the site, and what the mural needs to do — tell a story, anchor a brand, activate a community space, or mark an event. From there, design concepts, a clear timeline, and a straightforward scope come before any paint goes up, so there are no surprises for you or your Malibu location.
Types of murals for Malibu clients
For Malibu clients that typically means private residential commissions, refined pieces for boutique hospitality venues, and event-driven work for private functions.
