With a long-term renter moving…read moreout, the place required a complete refresh so that it could once again be listed as a fully designed and furnished rental. We needed somebody who could be on site and make decisions with little direct guidance. Denise did the design, the required budgeting, and the planning work upfront to make sure all the required materials would be ready. Then, being the one-stop-shop she is, Denise and her team were able to supervise the clean-up, do the required touch up of paint and such, assemble new furniture pieces, and provide and install all the original art needed to make the place a show stopper. We were super satisfied with the results and feel only an approach like Denise's could have got this done on time and on budget!

Inside, you'll find spray paint, paint markers, stickers, prints, and cool urban apparel for purchase, all of which features the work of our local Austin street artists and often has a motivational, "Keep Austin Weird," or "Austin Pride" kind of message. Chances are that if you have noticed any impressive new mural or live street art event around town (such as at the X Games, ACL Fest, SXSW, FunFunFun Fest, East Austin Studio Tour, or the Long Center lawn) over the past 4 years, SprATX was involved. Their artists have also done work for most of the Alamo Drafthouse locations and numerous corporate clients around the city. As if that weren't cool enough, SprATX is also the creator of #ATXFreeArtFriday https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/atxfreeartfriday/, a weekly art scavenger hunt in which artists of all levels (from hobbiests to professionals) hide their work (stickers, canvases, screenprints, sculptures, textiles, anything goes) throughout the city. The artist posts clues on Instagram and waits for a lucky treasure hunter to find the stash. The finders post their "I found it!" reactions online, tag the artist and #ATXFreeArtFriday, and the cycle continues. Follow @atxfaf_official and the hashtag on Instagram if you want to join the game. The diverse 30+ member collective includes amazing local street scene artists like ZUZU, Roshi K, G52, Truth, Lucas Aoki, and Drib, whose works you've likely viewed all over town. The collective also serves as an incubator for talent around the country through their Artist Exchange Program, which pairs artists from Austin and other cities to co-create murals which are then created and revealed in the partner artist's city. I just love supporting a local business that fosters community involvement and puts beauty into the world. Closed on Wednesdays; otherwise open 12:30-7:30p daily.

Amy does outstanding airbrushing! She has skills!…read more I am an artist working on a large, complex piece. Part of it called for airbrushing but I don't airbrushing and didn't want to learn it just for this one piece. Then, I came across an airbrushed mural Amy had done on the grounds of Casa de Luz, my favorite vegan restaurant in Austin. Fortunately, she signed it "Airbrush by Amy." I immediately looked her up and a days later, she came to my studio and did the airbrushing -- beautifully! Amy really listened to what I wanted the airbrushing to accomplish and she was able to execute it as I had envisioned it. She worked fast and her price was reasonable. Thank you, Airbrush by Amy!

At times, I was a little nervous of the idea put in front of us, but once I let go of control and trusted the process, the end result was beyond my wildest expectations. Sarah pushed my comfort zone and asked me to try new things, assuring me that if we didn't like it, we could always change it. But there was no need. Everything she did was so beautiful and functional. What started off as a design for one room ended up being the whole house. I am so proud of my home and Sarah I can't thank Sarah enough!
