Meet Millie
Hi, I'm Millie!
Mural artist, nature lover, and mum of three. I create vibrant, hand-painted murals that transform blank walls into joyful, story-filled spaces that people remember and are impossible to scroll past.
If you have a blank wall, or an idea you want to explore, get in touch for a creative brainstorm with me!
About Me
As a mural artist, I love to create vibrant, hand-painted murals that bring personality, colour, and joy to all kinds of spaces and places. Whether it's a school wall, a café, a child’s bedroom, or a community space, my goal is always the same: to create artwork that makes people stop, smile, and feel something.
My style is inspired by the natural world, in particular flora and fauna native to Aotearoa, NZ - native birds, lush botanicals, colourful wildlife, and the little details that make our environment so special. I love creating murals that tell stories, spark curiosity, and help transform ordinary spaces into places people remember.
Before becoming a full-time muralist, I worked as a Gallery Curator and Event Manager, surrounded by creativity and community. In 2023, after the birth of my third son, I took the leap into mural painting full-time and haven't looked back.
Every mural I create is thoughtfully designed and hand-painted to reflect the people, stories, and spaces behind it.
If you're dreaming of a wall that feels vibrant, welcoming, and uniquely yours, I'd love to hear your ideas and collaborate with you to make it personal and perfect for your space.
FAQ’s

After an initial discussion with a client about their mural, I can provide a pretty instant estimate cost for the project. Prices usually range between $160 per square metre and $280 per square metre. Determining factors include: interior vs exterior wall, whether working at heights equiptment is required, and how complex the design is.

Dimensions of the wall, pictures of the wall, where you’re located, a general idea of what you envision for your mural.

YES! I am very open to travelling for mural work. I have a young family at home so I would need to have a discussion well in advance. Travel would be limited to 2-3 spaces per year!
-
I use high quality Resene Lumbersider exterior paint which is built to withstand harsh weather conditions. I painted a mural 8 years ago and it’s still in amazing condition. If it rains while I’m onsite, I’ll usually wait until it fines up!
-
I love working with businesses! We can incorprate logos, colour palette, company values and more to ensure the mural refects the brand and works with the space as a whole.

Once you get in touch, I’ll just need a few photos and the measurements of your wall. From there, we’ll chat about your ideas and the design brief. If you’re in the Bay of Plenty I’ll even pop by to see the space in person. Your first design draft will be ready in about a week, and once you’re happy with it, we’ll lock in painting dates. For walls under 20 square metres, the painting usually takes me about a week to complete!
