Opening a shop with his wife Pascale, he was hired to produce a mural for a restaurant, and began to accept new commissions for additional mural work.

In 1989, Pascal attended faux finishing, graining and marbling classes in Paris, in lieu of mural classes, which did not exist at the time. He accepted a position at the Galerie Apparences in Paris, specializing in trompe L’oeil and mural painting. In 1993 Pascal was recruited by the IPEDEC to develop and lead their distinguished Mural Department, providing world-renowned classes in mural painting.
