ARTIFICE, INC. OWNER BRYAN KING
Bryan King has been working as a decorative artisan in the Washington Metropolitan region since 1986. He has a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Carnegie-Mellon University and received his M.F.A. in painting from Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. He is a past recipient of the Washington Building Congress Award for Craftsmanship and an instructor of mural painting for the Smithsonian Resident Associate Program. Bryan has executed many large scale building murals that dot the landscape of the region. He has also executed for the past 30 years numerous murals for private residences, corporate interiors, schools, and restaurants, and sophisticated finishes for many prestigious interiors including the House and Senate Theaters at the Main Exhibition Hall at the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center.
Additionally he is a member of the Salon, an international organization of many of the best decorative artisans working today. This exposure along with his many years in business and studying the art of decorative finishing at conventions and schools of decorative art have given him a deep appreciation for craftsmanship and the limitless possibilities of the art. Bryan specializes in mural painting, but also offer faux finishes, custom fine art, furniture repainting, gilding, and decorative plasterwork as part of our services. I would love to speak with you about your next project!
