Detail view of a wooden column with carvings which I refinished. The wooden columns were weathered and the paint was faded to a minimum, so the original hand painted look was completely gone before I was asked to refinish them.

The window you see on the left wall next to the ivy is hand painted, the ivy too. It’s a trompe l’oeil mural which is French and means it is tricking the eye. The owl sitting in front of the window is painted of course too. It is possible to do a whole facade with windows, doors and greenery. If you ahve an out-door facade which has no windows send an email and we we can change this – it is cheaper than to built in real windows.
The mural was done after the painting “The Singing Waiter” by British painter Jack Vettriano. It is located in Studio City in a beautiful entertainer’s backyard with a bar, swimming pool and fountains.

Outdoor Mural for a bar in Studio City/Encino, private residence
The entertainment backyard of my client has a wonderful pool, a fountain and bar which needed a suitable background. Together we found a very nice design featuring a couple hanging out at a bar. It gives the illusion that the bar goes all around. If you have a backyard and you love to entertain a mural would make a difference.

Restoration of hand carved columns
To refinish these columns was a challenge indeed! The color of the four hand carved columns along a wonderful sparkling swimming pool of the Mulholland residence were brown and there was hardly any color left. Wind, sun and rain had caused the paint to fade away over the years.
The home owners contacted me and asked me to refinish the columns. And as you can see on the picture, I found my way to the beautul carvings.
Suddenly you could see some contrast and the real beauty of the columns.
See the details! It was amazing how they looked after I sealed them with a varnish.
