Amazing Pictue of Faux Block And Faux Stone

by THAT Painter Lady on Friday, May 15, 2009

faux-blockThanks for all the great information – I’m so glad I found your site!

I began a small faux painting business about 6 years ago and worked it for about 3 years.

I would say it was marginally successful as I was
learning as I went along and was not well organized.

I did all kinds of crazy finishes.

Well I’ve decided to try again this time armed with
more knowledge and experience and organized!!

I want to specialize in wood graining, I love doing this picture-faux-stonetechnique,
and eventually add some marbling finishes.

I bought your videos, they were very helpful as I was studying various

techniques and it gets all so overwhelming.

You helped simplify. Thank you.

I know I will have questions along the
way.

The picture above is of faux block or stone I did in our basement.

So happy to hear that you are getting back into the business. I wish you all the best and look forward to seeing some pictures of your work!
