RAI6 Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 It's somewhat hard to tell from the pics... Could you get a close-up shot? First guess is that it's some type of faux finishing technique. Either with sponge, tissue, or rags. You would start by applying a base color. And then you would add your "texture" color on top of that, using the sponge as applicator. You could use several different colors to add more "depth" to the effect. And then you finish of with a clear coat. But that's IF that's the technique used. Need some close-ups.......

Brian Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 Actually it looks like a faux marble finish and you can get kits for it online or at just about any art supply store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
