Giving these quality pieces of furniture a new life and a new look is important to Paul. He often combines natural wood finishes within his painted pieces, and appreciates fine antiques, but the trend in many homes now is quality painted furniture that can fit into a more contemporary style. He often researches pieces to be sure they are not a sought after antique before he gives them a new life with paints and glazes. His clients range from all ages and décor styles. He recalls a beautiful desk that sold to a very well know British star. He made that delivery to her trendy NYC apartment himself! Following current colors and trends is something that guides his work but does not dictate it. While he will paint pieces that he thinks will sell, he is always trying new color palettes to see what the clients are looking for One statement piece is often the trend in a more contemporary style, even if that piece is very rustic and weathered. As long as it adds character to the room most of his pieces are adaptable. To see more of Paul’s work, visit Walnut Street Marketplace in Howell, Mi.
