Painted Backdrops

Custom Painted Drops

Our new building houses one of the country's largest backdrop painting facilities. Two 27 Ft. high by 80 Ft. wide motorized easels allow drops to be painted without ladders, lifts or any shop floor space. We can therefore paint our drops faster and more economically than our competition.

The following photographs depict a drop being painted for the San Francisco Flower and Garden Show. This drop was completed in 8 days by two artists, under budget.
