The Painted Ceiling

by Graham Rust

In The Painted Ceiling, Graham Rust shares his secrets for creating a wide range of painted ceilings: daytime and nighttime skies; birds and animals; cloud formations; rustic schemes featuring flower-decked trellises; trompe loeil architectural details such as plasterwork, paneling, and coffering; simple geometric patterns; and allegorial scenes in a grand manner. He also explains how to choose just the right design for the area you wish to paint.

An inspirational, yet practical collection of original creations and ideas for ceilings - from simple to ornate. Indispensable as a resource as we were designing our new home - and a resource I highly recommend.
