Welcome to Art by Vicki Terry

In recent years, faux finishes have enjoyed a huge resurgence in popularity. Derived from the French word "faux", meaning "to fool the eye". These finishes simulate many materials and surfaces such as marbles, rare stone, fine woods, textiles, old world European plasters and textured wall finishes, along with a host of natural aging and distressing techniques.

Not just a fad, faux finishes have been used for thousands of years when the original material was not available, too expensive, or not feasible. Faux finishes can be used to recreate the walls of a centuries old Italian villa or to simulate an authentic Mediterranean courtyard.
