Painting Examples

 

 

We did this quiet, restful finish for the waiting room at Grey Canyon Family Medicine in Stone Oak.

 


  This 1950's kitchen was too dark, dated and dreary for the new owner. We painted the existing cabinets, replaced the hardware and tiled the backsplash to brighten it up.  

 


  The owners were tired of the bright color and bold pattern of the wall paper shown left. They wanted to replace the wallpaper. But since the stained glass window was custom made to match, we decided that a better solution would be to simply soften the colors. A special finish allows the pattern and color to peek through gently and the beautiful window to take center stage.  

 


We just wanted to say "thank you" for a job well done.  We love the faux painting!  We would like to give you a special thank you for the special faux painting in the living room niche, recessed area over the entry and the pillar.  That really makes a world of difference.  We thought that we liked that room before you started.  We now love it.

< Before --------- After >

We wanted to accomplish several things here:
lighten the room,
tone the green down
add some visual texture
add a hint of tan

 


< Before ---------- After >

We wanted to keep the warmth of the gold color, but needed a more complex finish that quietly hinted at the dark reds of the accessories.

 


< Before --------- After >

We wanted a simple but dramatic treatment
for as little money as possible.
This came out so well, it doesn't even need art.

The pink stripes are light across the film,
but, this is the only 'before' photo.

 


< Before ------- After >

The bar in this new house was 'builder's boring-white'. We gave it some personality.

 
  This limestone fireplace had red brick trim that overpowered it.
We toned the trim down to camouflage the awkward proportions.
This photo was taken half way through the process.
