Meet Sally Masteller
Carrying on the ancient artistic tradition seen in prehistoric caves, Egyptian tombs, Roman frescoes, and medieval palaces, artist Sally Masteller, owner or CustomArt West, transforms homes and businesses throughout Southern California. Since 1997, her murals, trompe I’oeil and faux work have graced walls both outside and in and transported those who view them to another place and time. A talented and respected artist, Masteller plays with color, composition, perspective, and light. She can create architectural detail where none exists, illusions that evoke not just art but ambiance, and personal touches by painting a family pet or a favorite possession into her custom scenes.
