Faux Finish & Murals on the Ceiling: The Sky is the limit

Faux Finish & Murals on the Ceiling: The Sky Is the Limit
Look up. What do you see? If you’re outside you see a glorious infinite palette of blue. The blues range from barely there to deep midnight black.  Sometimes the palette is accessorized with puffs of white and at other sometimes bursting with orange, reds, violets, or even shades of sage and green. However, if you’re inside chances are you are staring at a flat white ceiling.
As a faux artist and muralist I see the ceiling as a canvas itching for someone to notice it. Having the sky painted on is a marvelous answer and gives the room, well…an open feeling. Even if your room doesn't have soaring ceiling heights, the right shade of sky makes room feel open.



























The above ceiling is painted in 3 shades of blue and white on an 8 ft. height ceiling.

The shade of sky can create a mood for the room:
Shades of blue and beige exude an elegant feel in this dome ceiling over a sunken tub.



Heavy cloud effects in white, cream, and sage over a deep Mallard Blue create an after the rain feel.




Bold blues and fluffy white clouds greet customers as they enter an Italian themed restaurant.
