Golden polished plaster

This iridescent gold plaster finish was created for the walls of a Parnell office designed by Jason Bonham.






His brief was to make the walls be seen from a distance, with the central bookcase being the feature as you enter. This stretched me to boost the tonal contrast and movement.

Mural @ Asylum Hair Salon, Auckland

This mural was created to visually open up the long and narrow space. 

It is hand painted based upon the design proposal seen below.

The image is based upon a stylized flower from a bee's perspective.

Tryptych

This is a hand painted replica of the vintage 60's silkscreen poster shown. 

It is a triptych, made on three separate panels, so that it can make it through the door.

Turquoise Plaster

This turquoise tint was handmade to bring some refreshing coolness to a white wall gallery.

The finish is glassy smooth and reflective from side view.

Gold Wash Over Burnished Plaster

Before

This wall had an overhang which did not allow the mirror to be properly installed. 

The dining area also shared space with the living room and office needing visual cohesion.

A wall was made for the mirror, and plastered.  

A gold powdered wash was created to match the golden frame of the mirror.

  

The play of light brought out different layers of the wall. 

In this view, you can see more of the plaster colour coming through from the golden finish.
