Today-Tomorrow-Forever

Today-Tomorrow-Forever

The latest beach scene mural is titled “Today-Tomorrow- Forever”. “2-2-4” is a sweet secret  phrase that the husband and wife use to tell each other that they love them today, tomorrow, and forever.

The bright and tranquil scene is painted on the side of their new garage that faces the backyard pool in exterior latex and acrylics. It features palm trees both close up and far







Adorable sea turtles make their way to the water:


Their secret phrase is “carved” into a tree trunk:

Turning Back Time with Faux Finishing

Turning Back Time with Faux Finishing

Ah, the wonderful humidity of SW Florida. It’s great for the native plants and even our own skin. But it’s not great for metal. Over time the humidity wins and starts and begins to rust and corrode metal items. With a little sanding, priming, and recreating a metallic faux finish look, however, what’s old and corroded can be new again.

The beauty of these majestic entry doors has been given new life. Metallic Exterior Paints from Paint Laboratory helped bring it back to its original look and luster. I’m standing next to the doors to demonstrate the size of these gorgeous doors: 




Here’s a closeup look and the wear and tear of time and handling next to the revived finished:



Now the doors are back to being as stunning as the rest of the home:

Dolphins At Sunset

 

Dolphins At Sunset

One of the most overlooked exterior canvases in SW Florida is the wall space just under the lanai. This space is the full length of the home and can be enjoyed while hanging out on your dock or as people boat along the canals.

For this home’s mural, the request was the brilliant colors of our gorgeous SW Florida sunsets. A formally beige wall now bursts with orange, yellow, and purple. And, of course, everyone’s favorite aquatic creatures, the dolphins, are jumping out of the water.


The exterior lanai wall is divided into 2 parts:


The wall space was cleaned and primed with Bulls Eye 1-2-3. Valspar Duramax was used for its tenacity against the harsh Florida sun. Exterior acrylic help make the “Sunset” really pop. And your best friend when painting outdoors on our cloudless days… SPF70!
