Hi! I’m Sky Benson, a professional mural painter and fine artist based in Savannah, GA, specializing in creating custom hand-painted murals for residential and commercial spaces.
As a former professional scenic artist in the Atlanta film industry I’ve painted murals on commercials and shows for Apple+, and CBS just to name a few. While in the film industry I not only honed my skills at basic interior painting, I learned new techniques for faux finishes, and large scale murals. Most importantly painting film sets elevated my attention to detail and sharpened my skills; invaluable lessons I’ve been using for years now to execute professional, high quality, hand-painted murals for my own clients.
My artistic inspirations include Bauhaus, Retro Futurism, Pop Art, and Neo-Abstraction, which influence my approach to designing unique hand-painted wall murals. I especially love researching vintage graphic design and advertising for patterns that inspire me.
I also enjoy painting on canvas and wood cutouts, old school enamel sign painting, making mixed media sculptures, and up-cycling furniture. If I’m not making art I’m either skateboarding poorly, being a Savannah foodie, playing with my cats, feeding the neighborhood strays, or at the beach with family and friends.
