Wall Finishes

Layered washes or glazes set the mood of a room.


Blue Three-Color Wash

Two-Color Wash

This example is a wash of linen white over a reed green. A soft white over any color makes for a cloudy parchment effect.


Old World Glaze

Old World Glaze

Besides being beautiful, wall glazing is a very durable finish.


Hand Painting on Glazing

Free-Hand Painting on Glazing

Free-hand painted acanthus leaf swirls give a provincial charm to this powder room. This design wraps around corners and scrolls off the wall.


Pink Three-Color Wash

Three-Color Wash

Because this room had no natural light, light was "created" by a golden yellow wash over a linen white base, then followed by pink and linen washes.

Three-color washes can unite multiple paint colors to bring harmony throughout your house.
