MURAL RESTORATIONS

Between 1996-2006, murals were painted on the many walls of the Willert Home Products Headquarters in St. Louis. All murals are by On The Wall Productions, designed and painted by Sarah Linquist, and coordinated by Robert Fishbone, Liza’s parents.

In 2010, Sarah passed away and in 2017, Liza teamed up with her dad, Robert, to restore the murals in a multi-year initiative.

Much of the old murals were fading, peeling, chalking, and had experienced water damage. Many of the walls needed repair that came in the form of tuck pointing or relaying bricks. This meant losing areas of the old mural in order to repair, wash, and prime the wall. The pair used a combination of existing mural, old hand-painted renderings, and original photos to understand the colors and layout to restore the murals.
