Antique Plaster Effects
artSparx has created a 3 stage step-by-step
tutorial series. Series 1 begins with basic plaster
application, our 2nd series illustrates antique glazing
and plaster distressing methods, culminating in the final
fresco simulation series 3, hand-painted elements. You can
complete each tutorial as a finish and style in it's own
right. Or, depending on your interests and style needs,
combine the tutorials to achieve the hand-painted fresco
appearance that will bring your environment to life.

Tuscan Style |
|
Design Style Feature
Tuscan style evolved through layers of
history, taking cues from the earliest Etruscan metal craft and
pottery, and of course, from the sumptuous world of the Italian
Renaissance. In Tuscany one finds frescoes, cracked and worn by
time, still vibrant with original pigment, depicting ancient
deities and the decadence of the late Roman empire.

Masking tip:
Always test
an area to be taped before beginning the masking job. Wallpaper is particularly
susceptible to tearing. Lacquer and varnish surfaces on furniture may come off
easily with the tape and the item could be severely damaged.

Commonly
categorized as "Marmorino",
"MarmoFloat" is
comparable to
many of the
products found
on the West
coast and parts
of the South,
where versions
of Marmorino
have been
considered to be
a more granular
slaked lime
aggregate
finish. |
Considered by
many Italians
the salt and
pepper Marmorino,
or perhaps
Marmorino
Naturale,
MarmoFloat is an
excellent
product with
many beneficial
features.
| Using select
Calce di Fiore
aggregate,
MarmoFloat combines
aerial-lime
technology with
decorative
application
techniques to
provide an
impressive
interior/exterior
coating. Using
select earth oxide
pigments, MarmoFloat
is typically tinted
to neutral colors
using the Ossidi
automated tinting
system. Applied
using stainless
steel trowels and
smoothened with
sponge floats,
MarmoFloat becomes
very soft
and flexible
during it's
application,
allowing it
to become
smooth and
polished.
Giving the
wall |
 |
decorative
depth and
protection
against
mold-mildew,
while
allowing the
surface to
breath are
just a few
of the
benefits MarmoFloat.
