Specialist Decoration, Faux Stone Conservatory Walls

Painting exterior faux stonework in England can be a bit of a challenge, so with the scale of this conservatory, I was going to need scaffolding and a tarpaulin, so that any painted areas would be protected if it rained. The clients went above and beyond with the setup, providing me with my very own waterproof chrysalis and a wonderful, if not slightly surreal environment to work in. The tarpaulin worked perfectly, letting enough light in so I could work, whist keeping me, and the paint dry during some massive storms and torrential downpours.

The faux stone paint effect I created blended seamlessly with the real stone below the windowsills and complimented the main stone used to build the house. I even created the illusion of mildew around the edges and drainpipes to add a little more authenticity to the overall effect.

Faux Stone Wall Panel, Victoria Shopping Centre, Harrogate

For this specialist decoration project, I was asked by the owners to create a faux stone paint effect on an exterior panel of the shopping centre. The panel was originally a rusty red colour and really stuck out, so painting it was the perfect solution. Structurally, this area could not be made of stone, so by building up layers of colour and adding a detailed patina, I made match the real stone surrounding it, and blend away.

Rustic York Stone Paint Effect on Conservatory Walls

This decorative faux stone project was undertaken in the conservatory of a private home near Harrogate, North Yorkshire. The effect created complimented the real stone of the exterior, but added a rustic feel by creating the illusion of aged pealing plaster. Stylised ivy stenciling was also added to add further detailing.
