Fine
faux finish is an art form that's truly mastered by few
people. Mary Adore Coloney is a skilled master not only
of specialty finishes such as sponging, ragging, and the
more common forms of marbling, but also of exquisite finishes
seldom seen because of their difficulty. She faultlessly
renders faux marbre such as malachite, lapis lazuli, porphyry,
and travertine. In modern construction she's called on
to render steel and fiberglass doors in faux bois to match
mahogany, cherry, oak, and cypress. Ms. Coloney renders
bamboo and tortoiseshell; she transforms concrete into
metal, stone, or terra cotta. Using a proprietary technique
that is water and weatherproof, she renders marble on
concrete statuary, flooring, planting vessels, and ponds.
She can extract elements from your wallpaper or fabrics
and incorporate them as matching decorative details. She
can turn trunks and chests into decorative "antiques".
Ms. Coloney reproduces artistic elements in the style
of classical artists. She excels at trompe l'oeil, rendering
niches and statuary as well as architectural elements.
She also specializes in creative problem solving, from
damaged architectural elements and repair of painted surfaces
to innovative design solutions. |
