The art of faux finishing is a time-honored decorating craft. Today's faux finishes used by Paint & Paper Works, mix age old painting techniques with new methods, texture products and innovative ideas that go far beyond those of old world masters.

Our techniques enable us to reproduce natural finishes, such as woods, marbles, metals, stone and other coveted materials, with tremendous realism and durability.

We pride ourselves in being the best, using only experienced artisans to create our finishes.

We know caveman painted on the walls of their caves. The Greeks and Romans painted their walls to reflect the look of real marble and stone. The Egyptians painted frescoes. The Victorians were so enamored with the look of marble, woods, etc. for fashion's sake, that they painted reproductions of these textures and finishes on their walls.

Today, we want our homes to reflect our own personalities and interests and faux finishes can accomplish just such a task. Surprisingly, decorative painting, for all its rich traditions, can be as contemporary as today and as innovative as tomorrow.
