A special ceiling for a special home for the most difficult and discerning client: ME! 😉
It’s very challenging to plan and execute a project when you are so emotionally involved in a process and must live with the outcome every single day. Luckily, doubt and fear were eventually trumped by inspiration, color, pattern and momentum!
This ceiling ties together two very important rooms in our home, and are the most public and visible to our guests and visitors. It also required a lot of math and measurements, custom color mixing, drawing straight lines upside down, stencil patterns researched, sourced and purchased and other stencils drawn and cut in-house, hand painting with tiny brushes, metallic plaster, about 30 rolls of painter’s tape, weeks on a scaffold and (thankfully) a very supportive husband.
