Faux Brick Painting

Painted Brick Wall So Real, You Have To Touch It To Believe It Is Only Paint!

Becky tries her hand painting a fake brick wall for her son… using the Faux Brick Video.

Many thanks, Debra–I am now my son’s hero (and I even found some black & white New York prints on sale at Garden Ridge before I left, to complete his “New York loft” look!). (Oh, and I haven’t tried the grapes yet–the brick wall was a multi- day affair and my son lives a couple of hours away. But thanks for the info, and I hope to use it sometime). Becky

Congratulations Becky! Your Faux Brick Painting looks great! The knee pads are often a necessary tool to add to your tool kit. I have a set as well. Got the idea from a tile setter… he is always on his knees. What a life saver!

It just cracks me up when I see all the ways that Faux can be spelled. Fo is very common as a misspelling… so don’t feel bad if you found this page because you used the word Fo.

I have a faux brick video student who just finished his entire condo with faux painting and “fo” brick. The pictures are below of the fake - faux brick painting work around his kitchen door and fireplace. Good work Peter!

I am stunned at the success of this newbie artist. If you haven’t heard about the faux brick video lessons, here is the link: Faux Brick Video

Hi Debra !
My name is Raven. I have tried my hand at the faux brick and just love the results !!! Bless you for your skills in teaching this so clearly.
I have included some pictures of the bricks I have done on my studio wall. I hope the photos are clear enough …(a photographer I am not),ha!
I am a jewelry designer by trade …but after doing these bricks I am seriously thinking of looking into the faux business. Have you ever considered making a video of some of the other finishes such as marbling etc, ?
Thank you so much,
Raven Carney
