Refinished Antique Chairs
Two chairs with antique red finish flanking the entrance to a beautiful home in the Ford Plantation, Richmond Hill, GA. Picture featured in Savannah Magazine, Best of Homes edition.
Refinished Antique Hutch
This hutch was in rough shape when I first saw it. The stained finish was too dark for the room, was two separate pieces (the top was mounted to the wall) and missing moldings. I made it one piece with added mirrors and trim, replaced missing trim, and gave it an antique red finish with black glaze and rubbed gold accents. Now a bar, located in Dahlonega, GA.
Dining Room Marsh
My first mural was painted in 2003 at the Ford Plantation in Richmond Hill, GA. The mural was a marsh scene painted in subtle tones in a dining room.
Pheasant Feathers
Commissioned painting for a Richmond Hill residence. Contemporary painting inspired by an enlarged detail of pheasant feathers. The dining room is aptly called the “Bird Room” by the owner.
Faux Bois
Faux Bois (French for false wood) trim in a Long Point, Savannah, GA residence. I applied a faux wood finish with several layers of glaze and clear making the walnut doors appear larger and lighter in color than the former white trim. This saved the homeowner from days of construction and finishing.
Three Palms
