This is a blog I created to let friends, family and clients know what I am up to! I am an interior decorative painter, and am determined to teach people that decorative painting need not always be done with sea-sponges dipped in mauve paint, dabbled on a hunter-green wall. I have lots of great ideas to take back that bad idea of "faux" painting. contact: kristen.fountain@gmail.com
