Shopping for a Faux Finish?

Cabinet Glazing, Faux Finishes such as Faux Marble, Limestone & Leather; Color Washing; Venetian Plaster; Faux Tile, Brick & Stone are just a few of the Professional Faux Finishes and Decorative Painting techniques available through faux & beyond.

 

Owner, Lou Ann Lanier, has provided faux finishing services for clients in Huntsville, Madison and North Alabama area since 1993 and Faux Finishing Classes since 1998.

 

Lou Ann's studio and home have been featured several times in the in the Huntsville Times/Madison Spirit, on two local television stations and included twice in the Madison Historical Tour of Homes. 

She has provided faux finishes for the annual Parade of Homes and commissioned work for one North Alabama client that was later published in the 2006 Fall issue of Valley Living Magazine.

February 2, 2009, National Public Radio aired an interview with Lou Ann and her use of faux finishing techniques to create her Auto/Camo effects on the vehicles of local area hunters.  

These unique effects also caught the attention of Author/Faux Finisher Gary Lord and North Light Books; her work has been included in Gary's most recent book/DVD,

 'Simply Creative Faux Finishes with Gary Lord'

 

After reviewing over 1000 submissions, 30 new finishes by 23 different artists were selected for this book.  Each finish with step-by-step instructions using the latest techniques and faux finishing products on the market today.   The bonus DVD includes the demonstration of 5 additional finishes and a 20 page photo gallery.

"Still in utter disbelief, I am honored to be included in Gary's latest publication.", Lou Ann Lanier
