Porte-à-porte

These items are among the biggest that I have painted. In this particular case, they are 10-foot high doors, and painted together with the owner of the beautiful bungalow herself. The 2 of us took 3 days to complete the job. The combination of faux tiger maple and faux burled wood finishing makes the doors look as if they are carefully constructed from different types of inlaid woods.

Hello
Its so lovely to have found your blog today. I have been scouring the internet for interesting folk and decorative painting sites - and yours is one of the best blogs out there.
Well done! You paint beautifully and your blog is inspiring.
I am just starting to rebuild by own blog after being offline for many years, due to family issues.
You have encouraged me to get on with it,
Happy painting, thankyou for your inspiration.

thank you fiona. truth is, you are one of the well-known decorative artists whose work inspires me. I love your Over the Garden Wall series, but unfortunately I couldn't manage to get any copy while in print. luckily, my painting buddies who have them allow me to take a peek. good to hear that you are making a comeback online. best wishes
