Funky Faux Finishes

What does the word "faux" mean? It's a French word that translates into the word "false." This
specifically pertains to the certain effects Sherry offers that can transform an ordinary wall into
something extraordinary. How does she achieve this? She can transform and sculpt ordinary
plaster into a slight relief on your wall. By layering color, incorporating glazes, and adding
translucency to the paint, she can create effects as far and wide as a crumbling fresco that reveals
exposed bricks beneath, to fine Mediterranean marble, or even snake skin.
These "faux" effects are not constrained only to the walls. They can be applied to just about any
surface as well. Sherry has created various other faux effects on objects such as mirrors, outdoor
cast-iron furniture, flower pots, and even transformed some of her effects into works of art that can
hang on your wall.
Sherry now has worked throughout the midwest and other parts of the country and has even
received awards and press for the creative energy she puts into her work.
