Snail Finished room

I love it when clients send me the "finished" room, with furniture moved back in, accessories, etc! Love this one!  

Tropical Fish

Bathrooms are the perfect place for a mural! I paint a clear matte layer of polyurethane over everything to keep it waterproof and washable.
 





First time I sub-contracted a teenager to help: Melissa painted in the turtle for me while I worked on the rest of the bathroom!

Ceilings

Faux-finished tray ceilings, vines, and damask pattern. I love painting ceilings--it becomes a 5th wall to decorate in the room. I heard once (Debbie Travis or Christopher Lowell quote?) that leaving the ceiling white is like a slip showing below a skirt. If white is part of your decorating scheme, that is different. But neglect is a choice, and forgetting about that wonderful ceiling surface is sad!

 
 
 
 



This angel/putti only lived on the soffet for a day. The client's husband came home, hated it, so I painted it out, added more swirls to match other side.
