"Victoria is the best colorist I have ever known."  Alice Busch - Great Falls Distinctive Interiors

COLOR DID IT!

IF you're an artist or painter, it's ALL about COLOR! 

 

THE ART OF COLOR & FINISH COMBINING

Buon Fresco specializes in creating COLOR compositions that delight the eye - just as a musical composition delights the ear - with flawlessly selected chords of color, form, patterns, textures and reflected light, using Italian Plaster, Paint and Gold.  

The artistic director of the studio, Victoria Bingham, suggests;   "Dressing a beautiful room is not unlike dressing yourself.  Combine an appropriate blend of  texture, color and sheen.      For example combining a silk blouse, mohair sweater and  leather skirt with a string of pearls, is exciting.  An outfit comprising only one of those elements alone, is not.    

!COLOR DOES IT!tm

That is the composition aspect of Color.  Then there is the process of mixing.  When an architect comes to you and asks for a specific PRECISE color in Italian Plaster, they do not want a 'similar' hue or a higher/lower value.  They expect precision from the professional.

Then after the job is a few years old, and you return to add on, or effect repairs, the plaster needs to be precise.  Granted, paint might be prepared for you, but the Italian Plaster responsibility is yours. And in some cases it needs to be mixed - spot on - ON the SPOT.  Can you do that with confidence.  It can be learned.

Above^^ Rotunda Before Color...

Color.  It's Wonderful!     

Custom mixed Pale Gray Walls, Accent Wall of Matte Finish Deep Orange Italian Plaster
Plain Column, Beautiful View. Client wants column to fade but wants flash, otherwise.   Color Did it!�

Gray Italian Plaster permits the round Column to recede. Orange Italian Plaster highlights Focal Walls and adds contemporary drama to the space.

Another Decorative Painting Company painted an offering of Red Faux on the walls.  The clients balked and called Buon Fresco... Perfect Color did it!  The Green Damask Stripes beautifully compliment.                the red furniture. Dual Murals / Gold Leaf complete the work.
Furnished Room still lacked a 'finished look'. Mirrors appear to be floating in space. Ornate Fireplace is invisible behind black box! Perfect Color on walls & Ceilings 'Finishes' everything, compliments the strong fabric color and anchors the wall art.   Color Did it!�
View through the finished rooms of this Virginia home refined by a soft palette Italian Plaster and Painted Glazes Ending in the Dining Room with a high polish Italian Plaster in Robin's egg blue.
Before > Old Wall paper, Old look; stark and uninviting for a Dining Room setting...-  After, Rich treatment of polished Italian Plaster with Damask Pattern              overlaid in Matte plaster to compliment very elegant acoutrements.
Drab.  Uninviting.  White does nothing for a foyer.  A bit of color, and a welcoming mural.  What a difference a few days make!

Overdone Faux [not ours] includes too much Red everywhere

Doors returned to White, Focal Wall created with genuine Italian Plaster and a Mirror finished with 23.75 K Gold, Columns Finished with Venetian Plaster as Marble. Color Did it!�

Grand Hallway 'Before'.  Needs a strong statement.       Color Did it!�

Columns enhanced, Faux Limestone Blocks added, Trompe L' Oeil finishes Ceiling and judicial amounts of Gold bring out trim details.

Previously White Office now has Orange Marmalade Venetian Plaster coloring to wake Victoria Bingham up! [Original Paintings by Andre Kouznetsov.]

                                                 It was a plain white room with a Winnie The Pooh border.   Now it's a Boy's room with  'room to grow'.   Color Did it!�

             

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

       In the Beginning it was white...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

......  Color Did it!tm 

This Focal Wall on the Ceiling brought a cosy-ness to the sitting area in the otherwise large room and created a Color composition that draws the eyes from the sofa to the wallpaper to the ceiling and back. A completion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

         The Color in this room is taken from the carpet and mirror and adorns the high walls and the Chinoiserie Inset wall.
