A Fairy Tale Castle...

From the Archives:  A two story Entry in a 90 year old Tudor style home.  The old plaster walls had an original limestone block imprint that had been painted over for years.  The Home Owner wanted soft faded limestone blocks painted individually on each imprint.  One by one each was painted with translucent grays, umbers, sienna, sepia tones and a tiny touch of rose.

The scroll motif was painted in my studio on canvas and hung on the ceiling in between the layered and roped beams. I really loved working on this one, it was like working on a castle in a fairy tale...

You may say I'm a dreamer...but I'm not the only one...
