ABOUT THE OWNER

 Hi, my name is Ian Littrell.  I grew up in Washington township New Jersey.  From a young age my mother taught me the many benefits of artistic expression. For nine years in grade school I was trained in all forms of art from sculpture to fine art.  In 2000 I began painting for a living and have been refining my skills ever since.  My hobbies include building motorcycles, metal working, Landscaping design, interior design and I am an avid gardener.  I was married to my wife in 2013 and she gave birth to our first child, a boy, in January of 2014 and our second child, a girl, in September of 2018.  We bought our first home in February of 2014 about one mile from where I grew up.

About Littrell custom painting llc

    I began in 2000 working for a company painting new homes all over south Jersey.   I started out "paying my dues" like most new painters do, keeping paint buckets full so the sprayer didn't run out of paint, running to the truck to get tools and from time to time picking up a brush and roller.  In a short time I started sanding, staining and polyurethaning the woodwork on stair cases and rolling paint on the walls.  Later I learned how to cut a straight line.   After a few years of learning the ropes, i found my quality of work getting better and better as my speed also increased.

  I struck out on my own after 4 years and started my business by doing some free work for friends.  My funds were limited so this was my first form of advertising and things took off from there.  To this day a good portion of my business stems from those two free jobs I did in the early 2000's.
