Louisville Faux-Hand Painted Table.

It is not uncommon that a client looks at me with apprehension towards the future of some of their furniture pieces that may need a pick-me-up. Especially when you ask them if they would mind a piece, for example this formal table, painted bright green. Refinished furniture does not always mean that you found it on the side of the road and now you're selling it. If you are painting a piece that a client has looked at, decorated, and admired for years, you better make sure that the new finish is exciting and makes the client not regret listening to you.

Louisville Faux-Exteriors.

First floor exterior paint was approved this morning for this historical cast iron facade in downtown Louisville. The goal is to bring out the beautiful detail in a more tone on tone approach rather than the strong contrast between the deep green and off-white as seen on floors two through five. The first floor gives a little sneak peek of what's to come.
