What an original idea and unique application for a mural. It looks beautiful!

Poisano Bay - Main Entry - Buon Fresco


By: iLia Anossov (fresco)  of  iLAdesigns - Fresco School

Trompe l'oeil carved plaster work and vignette views of Positano Bay on the left and the Town of Positano street scene on the right, surround main entry doors. The style is in the best traditions of early Italian Renaissance. The technique is a genuine Buon (true) Fresco - the glorious technique of Giotto, Michelangelo and Rafael making it's mark in Los Angeles. An artist painting in buon fresco must paint with paints made from pure minerals which have been ground into powder and mixed with water. Artist must paint on the wet calcium based lime plaster before it dries. As plaster cures paints applied become trapped within the newly formed calcium crystals becoming one with the wall. The best calcium lime for fresco is made of marble or fine limestone. "We import lime for our frescoes from Florence, Italy where it is made from pure Carrara Marble. And as lime in plaster cures it becomes once again - marble, it is like painting with "Molten Marble" - said artist iLia Anossov (fresco).
