Artist
Statement:
I paint murals, paintings, furniture, cabinetry and screens in
the beautiful style of Caseine, France. To create these functional
art works in this traditional method, I make my own paints from
glue, milk, and pigments. The texture given by the transparency
of the glue and the delicate glaze obtained by the color yields
a unique crackling and antique effect.
Purchasing a screen, a piece of furniture, a mural, or a door is
like adding a piece of art to your collection.
My fee for murals and panels is $500 per day, and a 15' x 15' dining
room could range from six to eight days work, depending on the intricacy
of the painting. Murals and panels can be removable, made on wood
or canvas and mounted in position. Therefore, if you move, the work
can be transported.
Transportation
costs are added to the price of the work. These details are best
discussed on a piece by piece basis with the artist.
Thank you for visiting my web site and looking
at my work. - Marie Colette
