Our Story

Who We Are

Thanks for visiting our website! We are Tarl and Melanie Vaughn, the owners and operators of Squirrel’s Painting.

We are often asked how we came to name our business after a furry woodland creature, and our story starts when we first started dating. One day we were watching squirrels play and collect nuts and we both found them pretty amusing. Melanie crinkled up her nose to act like a squirrel, and that look became known as “the squirrel face”. Pretty soon, the playful squirrel face earned her the nickname “Squirrel”. The nickname stuck, and fourteen years later, Melanie is still affectionately called “Squirrel”.

When we decided to open our painting business, we wanted to stand out. We wanted to be different, and we wanted to show our fun, sometimes nutty, personalities by naming our business Squirrel’s Painting, along with our tagline “We’re Nuts for the Details!” Being nuts for the details isn’t just a cute marketing statement, it’s our business philosophy.

Each project deserves the time and effort to be diligent from start to finish, and we look at every detail, every step of the way.
