GRADUATE TESTIMONIES:

"I can't wait to get started!' Mike Colkette (Salon Member, after graduating the April 2012 Color Class)

'I feel like I've been working in the dark all these years!'  Kostas Papalexiou, NYC

I had read books on  different techniques for Venetian Plaster - The Buon Fresco method is by far superior.  The work is easier and the result is far more beautiful than any other method. There is simply none that can compare with the Buon Fresco technique. It is the Rolls Royce of Venetian Plaster work.  Chris Adams, San Francisco CA

Dear Victoria, “Since training with you my Venetian Plaster work has been published and recently I received a coveted award. Today my reputation is spreading throughout the Washington DC area. Buon Fresco, and the Academy of Wall Artistry has changed my artwork and business forever. The skills that I have learned at the Academy have set my work so far ahead my competition that I haven’t lost a single Venetian plaster bid since I completed the course years ago. I just want to thank you all over again.”  November 2010  Michael Gross, Dumphries VA
