"A popular, streamlined version of faux finishes.... Special spray paint emulates the feel of suede in a twig-wrapped vase, while a tool called a rocker enables a wood-grain-like finish to be applied faultlessly. Uses a series of well-illustrated questions and answers to introduce tools and supplies [and] basic and advanced techniques to the reader. Five American artists showcase their not-so-faux talents, giving a sophisticated breadth to this art."- Booklist.
Rhoda Rainey's Faux Finishing For The First Time (4483-8, $19.95) provides newcomers to faux with a basic survey of styles and approaches to projects using ordinary objects. Techniques are illustrated with a variety of color photos and a 'how do I' question/answer format lends to quick and easy consultation. All are excellent guides. An excellent guide.
