Victoria, Thank you so much for all your wonderful expertise.
You are the only teacher I felt had something to really offer me
that I couldn't figure out on my own and it is your innovative
spirit, and artistic understanding that has enhanced my
knowledge. There are faux finishers and then there are artists.
You are an artist in every way! Thank you so much for sharing
your art! ' |

'These are pictures of the
Richmond Symphony Orchestra's Leagues Designer House. I worked
with designer David Allen Ballas. He was awarded the master
bedroom and it was huge. There was 1000 SF of wall space. It
took me 180 hours to complete the finish. Everyone loves it and
I have had 3 different people say it looks like a 'Fortuny'
fabric. I custom mixed a light gray blue Venetian Plaster with a
7 layer un-burnished base. The color palette was blue, cream and
bronze, so I overlaid a wax with some antique bronze mica powder
added. In all I achieved the subtle - aged silk damask I was
looking for. '

My experience with Victoria, Buon Fresco, and the Academy of
Wall Artistry has changed my artwork and business forever.
The skills that I learned in Venetian plaster 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!
Since then my work has been published and my reputation is
spreading throughout the Washington, DC area. Recently my
Venetian plaster work was displayed in the Reston Home Show, for
which I was presented an award by Reston’s founder, Robert E.
Simpson. I am excited to see how my Academy training will
continue to hone my skills and further distinguish my work.
