This pommegranate tree is part of abig mural in the hallway of a Bel Air residence.
It was done completely in Old World style, featuring an Italian landscape, trees, cypresses, lemons, grapes and flowers.
The background is like a faux finish, sublte colors and fading. It reminds of the Da Vinci times when the world was calmer and more relaxed.
This railing was white as almost everything in this home.
To add some contrast my client and I decided to faux finish the railing and give it a warm espresso brown. This was a great idea. The hallway looks completely different now! It is very stylish!
If you are thinking of remodelling your hallway but don’t want to buy a new railing, this is the alternative.
It is less expensive, not messy at all and can be done in a short time. No annoying construction delays and errors – it will be a smooth transition.

Boring bathroom? No contrast? All walls are white?
A golden wall finish adds warmth to any room. You can choose from mor than 15 different metallic colors.
I did this wall finish for a private residence in Stevenson Ranch. The bathroom was all white.
The golden color adds a warm shine to the room and is matching the golden wall with vines in the bedroom which came first.

Unfortunately I don’t have a picture of the cabinet before I refinished it! It was all painted black and had no knobs but many scratches! Hard to believe…
I sanded it almost down but left patches of black paint. The first finish was antique white  and then combinations of different glazed.
The knobs I found at the stylish store “Anthropologie” and they fit perfect.
it has a shelf inside and an upper drawer. Selling it for $165.

French Design on a Ceiling
This Design is so French as it can get. My client’s home was throughout decorated in French style and when the dining area was remodelled they installed a sort of cathedral ceiling.Â
Without the faux finished background and the design the four parts of the ceiling were not visible at all.Â
I choose gold and copper for the ornamental painting and a very subtle faux finish in the brownish tone of the adjacent walls. It looks awesome with the crystal chandelier in the middle.
Faux Finishes are not out!
If you might have thought that this traditional wall finish is not trendy any more, you must know that it is still an option to bring life into your home.
I have done many faux finishes in homes which were completely white. All the walls. The hallway, the bathrooms – white, white, white with no contrast at all. Â
Antique scroll Mural
This is a hand painted antique scroll on papyrus. The paper is not real paper, I faux finished the texture, so it is all painted! My client gave me some quotes she liked which were rounding up the whole mural.
The mural is in the entry way on a wall which connects kitchen and living room.
What do you do when everything in your home had been painted white? There is no contrast, it looks sterile and needs some color. Faux finish the reiling and give it an espresso brown wooden look as I did in a home in Granada Hills.
