You Can Never Have Enought Inspiration
The Key To Being a Success in Business is Never Stop Learning
Never stop learning. Focus on one type of finish or style of mural at a time. Maybe you could get really good at painting sky and cloud murals on ceilings.
Have patience. Get good at it. Make samples to show to prospective clients and you should start to see a little more cash in your wallet.
