Fresco walls at The Village Square Cafe

This is the delicious Village Square Cafe located in The Village of Cross Keys in Baltimore…the food is pretty good too,hehe. From the guidance of Robert and Ruth Shaw, the resturaunteurs, we gathered inspiration from their travels to resturaunts from Georgetown to Madrid. The result is a cozy but upscale environment that has tons of charm so bring your appetite!

Faux Concrete Accent Wall

Faux concrete is so cool! I had the privilege of painting this hip and modern finish for a hip and modern,but sensibly traditional new design team in Baltimore, Foster Knott LLC. The office for the two is snugly located in Baltimore’s Patterson Park area and is the hub for some amazing and tastefully elegant design ideas.Check out these two on the web…www.FosterKnott.com

For what seemed like an eternity, I drove my big orange van full of supplies, memories and paint stains, until recently when I bid my friend farewell. I purchased a Honda Element, and then realized that the space that had left me with the van was indeed missed. So, I set out on a mission to purchase a shiny-new black Trecker trailer from Brooks Ramsey RV, and ave my custom auto details designed and applied.

The auto detail designs, along with my new website and other miscellaneous marketing material designs were done by my friend Kate, a graphic designer at Springray Media. And the finishing an application were done by Chuck at Northeaster Signs.

I AM SO EXCITED!!!! Check out my new Artstar Car!

To crate a warmer and more upscale ambiance in their den, I applied a latex and oil finish to the firewood storage area. Additional embellishment was added by the faux wood-grained shelf. The existing structure was lacking in depth and dimension, but after a simple but sweet overhaul, it’s looking great!

For this project, I used a gold leaf, and brushed it on to the dining room ceiling surrounding the chandelier, and surrounded by custom moulding. The end result was a beautiful and elegant room with a warm and inviting feel.
