It has been nearly a year since I have added news to this web site. I have been busy painting and have been adding news to my Facebook Pine Street Studios, Inc. page. Now I will add photos of many projects here that I have completed over the past year. It is by no means a complete summary of all the aspects of the latest work and in fact does not include several projects. I think it will give an idea of what I have been up to this past year. A mention too that I will be back at the Rufus Porter Museum teaching painting workshops once again next month.
Above L to R: A small powder room in a country house; decorated elevator doors in a high rise apartment; and my own foyer with ornamental plaster ceiling picked out in 11 colors, then antiqued, wood grained trim with hand painted leafy trompe l'oeil boarded walls.
Above: A decorated ceiling w/ 2 detail photos of an 1895 Philadelphia residence designed by Frank Furness. A small powder room with harlequin design and silver leaf. A trompe l'oeil canvas placed high in a foyer which includes a great blue heron.
Below: The grand hall of the Furness house above with 14 panel mural frieze just under the skylight followed by three detail photos. Next is a dining room with stenciled stripes in a Ralph Lauren damask pattern with hand painted trim of pink gimp.
Bottom Row: Great room detail with hand painted herringbone and rope pattern. A little boy's bath (with detail) and a detail of a cellar wine room.
