Thanks for the post. Could you explain in more detail about the several techniques of Venetian plaster? I only have one year's worth of experience in this area and welcome the opportumnity to learn much more. how is it that only two grades of grain limit your available to achieve true venetian plaster techniques? Did you attend their workshop? Or just experiment on your own?

thanks for your help. if possible, please respond by email.
