FAUX FINISHING

Faux painting, fine art, and decorative finishing enhance the beauty and value of your home. Color washing, frottage, sponging, ragging, stippling, and dragging are all faux painting techniques that I use to create a new atmosphere – expanding space and altering the mood of a room - or creating the illusion of texture on a plain wall and other parts of the home. I can produce real texture with Venetian plaster, textural plaster, or even a crackle faux finish, adding character to a space or object. I use distressing and antiquing glazes to create an "Old World" charm and elegance. My faux finishes can make a space appear larger through color and texture alterations. I choose colors to complement the lighting, size, and furnishings of a given interior..
