and you can add me to the list of those who thought this was real marble! So realistic --shows the talent and good work!

Turning Concrete to Marble, handpainted faux stone

Style: Concrete Art

Our client wanted something unique on their showroom floor. Not the typical carpet. Not a wood laminate. We came up with the idea to sand the existing concrete floor and paint a trompe l' oeil marble inlaid medallion. Complete with cracks and chips. Added a soft antique patina over the top, then painted a scumble faux from the perimeter of the medallion to the floor edges. Three clear coatings of Acrylic were then rolled onto the entire surface to protect from foot traffic and add a high gloss sheen. Some people thought it was real marble. Client was happy.
