We hired Lauren to paint murals in the lobby of our business. It's always a pleasure when you get to work with a professional and a true artist. From the initial emails, to the quote and the actual job, you nailed it. Thank you Lauren. read more

I am having my first baby and was thinking of doing a mural in the nursery myself. With time running tight my mom offered to pay to have someone come in and do it instead. I have very high standards and was afraid that it wouldn't come out as nice as I was hoping or envisioned in my head. As soon as I met Lauren on the first day to go over what I wanted all my fears went away. She was exactly what I had been looking for. I gave her a few pictures of what I liked and was thinking. She helped me pick out the basic colors for the mural and then a week or so later sent us a sketch. I had one revision to the sketch and she promptly sent it back to us in about another week. She had originally quotes us 4 days of painting time and she was right on. She was on time everyday or gave me enough notice if traffic was delaying her which was no more than 15 m or so. She is AMAZING and I was so thrilled with the way it came out!! I show everyone the pictures of the mural and have gotten complements from everyone. read more

My sister and brother in law gifted us with a mural from Lauren for our baby's nursery. They were out of town and she was very good about communicating with them before contacting us. Lauren is a true professional and her work is beyond amazing. Lauren made the creative process easy. In one initial meeting, my husband and I sat down with her and brainstormed. From that she came up with a fabulous mural. She was very easy to schedule time with and extremely easy to work with. Based on the final design we chose, Lauren quoted us a 1.5 day time frame. I was beyond amazed when she came to our house and finished the mural in a day. She is a great communicator, trustworthy, and an amazing artist. The final product was beyond our wildest dreams and we were touched by her passion and her commitment to perfection. Our baby will grow up looking at this wall. Lauren was only in our lives for a short time but she left a piece of herself that will be in our lives forever! If you need a mural or any kind of painting for your house, she is definitely the girl to do it. We will not only be referring her out to all our friends and family but hope that she will do future murals for us as well. Thanks Lauren! read more

What a great experience it was working with Lauren! She is professional in every aspect of her business and is such a fantastic artist! I needed a mural painted inside of my Dance Studio - Dancify. It was very easy scheduling Lauren to come out and paint, and so easy working with her! She delivered exactly what was asked of her, and even better! Now all of my students who walk into the studio are asking about who painted the mural and comment on how great it looks! Thank you so much Lauren! read more

Wow!! If I could give 10 stars, I would. From start to finish, Lauren was responsive, professional, and prompt. Receiving her initial designs was a jaw-dropping experience. It was like she reached inside my head and created what I was envisioning, only even better than what I was picturing! I had a few changes I needed for one of the designs, and she revised it immediately and perfectly. She was accommodating with scheduling, and straight forward with her rates. I am opening up a new business and have been working with contractors and other people who have gone back on pricing and scheduling. Working with Lauren during this stressful time was definitely a breath of fresh air! She came when she said she would and did exactly what she said she'd do. The only surprise was how incredibly fast she worked without compromising any quality. I couldn't be happier with the two murals she did for me. I am in awe of her talent, and feel so grateful that I found and chose her. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone in need of a muralist, and I will most definitely use her again when the opportunity arises. In fact, she's so good that I might just create some opportunities for new murals! Thanks so much Lauren and Corinne : ) -Britney H. read more

I called for a price quote and not only was Lauren helpful, but extremely friendly and professional. I would recommend her business to ANYONE. I'm not a friend or family member, just a guy calling in, sick of bad customer service and enjoying the halcyon moment of a friendly phone call with a professional personality. Way to go Lauren! read more

Lauren did an excellent job at my office. Quick work and highly professional. For me, everything needed to be precise, evenly spaced and perfectly straight, and somehow she accomplished all that free hand... no printouts or cutouts, don't know how she did it... She's great at what she does. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. thanks Lauren! read more

We hired Lauren to paint a California beach scene in our son's bedroom. We knew we wanted a few key elements incorporated into the mural (VW bus, Manhattan Beach pier, ocean, surfers) and then we collaborated with Lauren on the rest. She offered us options for different levels that varied by size (and the number of walls) and price. She visited our home and took measurements of the room and ultimately I trusted her instincts on what would and wouldn't work. We settled on a one-wall design that was created with the idea that we could always continue the mural on to the adjacent wall. We just came home from vacation to find the mural completed and we are THRILLED - it exceeded our expectations and now our son's room is the most fabulous room in the house! The mural looks amazing - so professional! It's everything we wanted and more! I'm trying to convince my husband that our other younger son needs some of Lauren's magic in his room as well! Well worth the money and I know this mural will put smiles on all of our faces for years to come! read more

I needed professional chalkboard work and a hand painted sign for my food stall Sticky Rice Grand Central Market in Downtown LA. Lauren came highly recommended and I was absolutely thrilled with her work. On top of that, I had a very short time frame to get it done and she made it happen. I plan on working with her again. read more

I didn't get to use her because she is so far away, but she was still very pleasant and helpful and even tried to help me find someone on the east coast. I didn't even realize her work is handpainted... I thought they were decals!! Outstanding!! Wish we could've hired her! read more

See all

I contacted Lauren on short notice to do a mural at our fire station. We have annual inspections coming up and the guys at LAFD Station 6 wanted to do something special for the station that would last and be memorable. Lauren called me right away and told me her going rate, which was hard for the member at the station to come up with. Instead of being firm and uncompromising, Lauren offered to discount her labor cost and we managed to come up with the money to go ahead with the project. Lauren was totally professional, prompt, and "easy to work with." =) She came in prepped the area and got right to work, knocking it out in about 6 hours. She did an outstanding job which looked exactly like the logo we have for the station. I just wanted to thank Lauren for working with us, and helping us get Station 6 ready for our inspection. I'm sure the Chiefs won't overlook the mural and hopefully it will get us some "brownie points!" Lauren thanks again and I hope we can work with you in the future. -James =) read more

Working with L Star Murals was too good to be true. Lauren was amazing! I contacted Lauren of L Star Murals last minute for an unexpected job that needed to be finished in record timing. She was not only able to fit me into her schedule, but was so nice about it and seemed genuinely eager to work on my project. It was like I contacted a good friend for a favor - it was that easy. Our communication was great. Lauren asked all the right questions and not only arrived on time, but completed the job exactly when she said she would. I was around for most of the process and was just blown away at how talented she was. The project involved quite a bit of vintage-style lettering and how quickly she was able to lay everything out was just amazing. She came prepared with all the necessary supplies and not once did I ever have any doubt. From what I can tell, Lauren is an expert. I highly recommend her. It was such a joy to work with her and the project far exceeded my expectations. read more

Lauren is the real deal if you are wanting a mural. She met with us and took our vision to create an awesome new room for our nursery. Her work was so impressive, not to mention that she is an absolute pleasure to work with. Highly recommend! read more

I just want to say all previous excellent reviews about Lauren are all true. I just want to add that I asked for some alteration after the work was almost done, she re-painted it without any hesitation. Great attitude. Thanks again. read more

Lauren was given really short notice to create three large panels for an event the following week. She perfectly captured the idea we had and took it up several notches into a super, eye-catching series of murals that was admired by many. We loved working with her and would recommend her for all your sign-making and murals! read more

I can't say enough great things about Lauren!

OMG Lauren is the best!! I have been searching for a long time to find exactly what I wanted to put on the wall in my master bedroom and have just been completely lost. Lauren came out to my house to look at the space and go over various ideas before she started and I knew the minute I spoke to her that she was the one to help me figure this out! I sent her a few inspirational photos and a lot of incomplete ideas and she was able to incorporate everything into exactly what I was looking for. My bedroom wall is absolutely gorgeous!! She is super talented and was a lot of fun to work with. I highly recommend her to everyone as she does a fabulous job! I will definitely have her come back to help me with the kids' rooms next. Thanks so much Lauren!!!! read more

L Star Murals hand painted our logo sign on our storefront. It was not an easy job -- the logo is over 10 feet wide, and it's positioned above our storefront windows, so the whole thing is at least 13 feet off the ground. Lauren did an amazing job with it. We gave her our logo and she reproduced it with incredible skill and precision. It's absolutely perfect, and we get compliments on our signage all the time. It's exactly what we wanted. She was easy to work with, very reliable, and her pricing was competitive. Hiring her to paint our sign was one of our best investments in our business. read more

I worked closely with Lauren McElroy for weeks to get a mural painted in a community space. Lauren was prompt with her responses from beginning to end and was able to understand the concept I wanted to be painted on the wall. If you are looking for a company that is professional and prompt contact L Star Murals! read more

Lauren was fantastic. We are having our first child and she made the most perfect Dr Seuss mural that everyone raves about. It only took her two days and she was so easy going and a pleasure to work with! Even our dog liked her! Plus she was always on time and the room was spotless after she left. So happy with our mural and our choice of artists! Don't hesitate to contact her you will only be impressed! read more

My wife and are are expecting our first children - twins! - and preparing the nursery has become a go-to route for daydreaming... and managing our anxiety. Lauren's mural is exquisite, everything we asked for and so much more. She was a dream to work with; responsive, generous, patient, and above all, incredibly, incredibly talented. We're looking forward to enjoying her work for years to come and are so grateful to have found her. We seriously cannot recommend L Star Murals highly enough! The process of designing a mural was so much more fun - and emotionally moving - than we could ever have imagined. Thank you, Lauren. read more

I called Lauren after seeing a simple but beautiful nursery mural she had done for a friend's daughter's nursery. When my other good friend and his wife were preparing for the arrival of their baby girl I thought a mural for her nursery would be a great gift. Lauren was such a sweet person on the phone. After conversing with her shortly she gained my confidence that she would really do a great job. I put her in touch with my friend's wife and Lauren was able to glean all the info she needed to do this job. She called me after that and gave me a great quote. Within a few days she came to the house early in the morning and worked for two days for ~ 10 hours/day to finish the mural. You may notice it in the photos above. It's the fantastical nursery with crazy mushrooms, a wicked cool tree and jungle animals. My friend and his wife are so elated with the outcome. And I am very grateful to Lauren and LStar Mural for bringing such joy into the lives of my friends and they're beautiful baby girl Rupi. Thank you Lauren!!! read more

I wish there were more stars!!!!!!!! She could not be more talented, nicer or easier to work with. We hired Lauren to paint a Peter Pan themed mural for us and I had a VERY specific image in my mind. She was able to recreate it perfectly. Not only was it exactly what my husband and I wanted, Lauren was able to draw a beautiful addition to the mural for our ceiling that brought everything together. She is so talented and will be able to recreate AND/OR create exactly what you need. I will recommend her to everyone and anyone who needs this service- we are beyond pleased!!! read more
