GENNA and STEPHANIE faerie's /bedroom




julia called and wanted her girls rooms painted,for stephanie she asked for faerie's,which i painted around the room on all the upper moldings(in various poses and dressed differently each one having their own personality) then i suggested we paint the girls as faeries...i had fun with the girls taking photos and talking with them(they are both funny and smart)then i painted them on deep edge panel's which julia hung as you walk into the room,their was also small roses with vines drapping around the corners of the room.julia wanted the room to be her's,another fun job...nice family.

Lisa's table

Lisa wanted her table painted(it is actually glass)she wanted it to be a happy,fun table for her living area where she hangs out with her son's.i painted the legs to look like rust,gave the top a leather look i used a good primer that bonds to glass so it will hold up with no problems.

julia's jewelry box


Julia's husband jimmy gave her a jewelry box...it was made well but no longer went with their bedroom,she hired me to paint it.

wyatt and catherine's bathroom


Gail and john wanted the kids to have a fun bathroom...painted all the walls and the ceiling including above the shower,really does feel you are under water,painted it in 2003

dominick's bedroom/new york subway theme



In dominick's bedroom i did a subway theme...i painted his skateboard on the stairs that leads out of subway,looking intio a subway window with his mother and sister sitting in the window,painted the floor and also a subway door opening with dominick his friend and father entering into.....fun job

Risa's hydrangeas


Hydrangeas inspired from risa's garden,oil on panel with faux wood frame painted on gold wash,changes dramatically in light and shadow.

Risa's details in guest house


Risa had me paint the floor boards at bottom of stairs,green and brown stripes then light umber wash over them then clear coated with oil,small detail but added a nice feel when entering.it picked up the colors she was working with and also the ribbon on one of the hats hanging on a hook as you walk up the stairs(accident maybe or maybe not)then risa had me faux the floor vents(you can see before and after)so they would not stand out.
