Faux Wood Graining also called "Faux Bois" is the art of using decorative techniques to
imitate wood.
Wood grain hand painted can be convincing to the eye, like the original wood graining
on a design element. It has been around since the 19th century and a great way to bring
a natural look into an area.


We the artist, can achieve the look  based on a study of the wood
and then applying the base color, grain size & pattern to
complete the effect and feel of wood.


The distinct part of Faux Bois that makes the decorating concept
something of the future, is the costs.


As wood prices soar, Faux Bois can offset the costs in a design scheme &
allow the designer, business or home owner, the option to have a great decor,
for a fraction of the costs of installing real wood.
