I usually paint in oils and some airbrush work,nothing spectactular though. I started a faux marble effect on a wall at home,it's turned out good and I want to do a fresco on the opposite wall. My idea was to do three or four 2'sq panels but I have not come up with an idea to frame/tie them together.

I have a lot of time and do not mind "experimenting" as long as I learn along the way, thanks for your book suggestion I'm going to try and get it. Btw I do not think that fresco is an easy thing to do I do recognise the time effort and talent people have to put into their work.

I have Vasari,Cenni and Doerner books they give some details but cut off at the point of interest,the scagliola and stucco lustro and duro descriptions have cleared up a lot of confusion--my head was getting sore trying to keep up.

See ya later
