False Marble Fireplace

 After doing false stone and false bricks, I'm now doing false marble on the same job in the enormous town house in a very wealthy district in Paris.

As the original false marble was not very nice and rather damaged, the architect advised me to re-do it entirely and the lovely client told me to do what I thought would be best. (so cool!)

I sanded and primed it in off white. I put an ochre patina on the inner part thinking it would look good with the parquet floor. Then I did a softish pink fantasy marble. It was a bit of a whim but why not?

Repairing imitation marble walls in a friend's apartment.

Plastering cracks, priming then patching an existing decor with oil paint. Work I hadn't done in a while but luckily and surprisingly, the hand doesn't forget. Check out my palette and groovy brush which looks homemade but is store bought.
