Celtic Swags

A nice way to finish the month...





Designed to fill the space over a flat screen television, with a coordinating swag for over the sliding door, colors from the room were incorporated, as well as the client's monogram.  This project was completed in one day.

Peacock Feather Wall





Created for DeCristo Design Interiors, this wall can be seen at the fabulous lighting showroom "Harbor Lighting Boutique" on South County Trail in Exeter.  Inspired by the peacock sculpture and the art glass lamps, the accent wall helps the viewer flow through the space.  The feather was painted in all metallic paints which were especially suited for a lighting showroom.

Barrington Bookstore Toy Section Mural

Finally complete!










For the new expansion of their toy section, Barrington Books needed "wow" factor for the space.  Given only the direction of a twilight scene that engaged kids 8-15, I created "islands" of colorful images, with a leaning towards nature, science and adventure.
Here are the stats:  one full day of design, eight days of on-site mural painting, a day and a half to create the compass table and another day to paint and install the clouds and archway.

Barrington Books will be having a grand opening celebration on Saturday, March 24th, from 11:30-3:30 with live entertainment, book signings and storytelling.  Check out their website for more details, including a Lego contest!

Coastal Village on Tile




Installed in the same kitchen where I painted the sink front, this tile mural includes the owners' dog at the cafe and family names on the shop signs.  The hydrangeas tied in the colors of the kitchen island and walls.  The tiles were painted in my studio and then installed and grouted by the contractor.
