Process
This client wanted to create a hand dyed scarf feel on a Moroccan inspired ceiling.
Execution
I did a bold leathery red and venetian plaster throughout the walls and ceiling. We wanted the eye to be drawn upward so I painted the design on the ceiling and then up the walls. I then burnished it with an umber wax to give it that batik feel.
Detail
There is a lot of movement with both the hand painted batik lines and burnished wax.
