Nicola Thwaites Specialist Decorating, London, UK, offers a range of broken colour effects, colour glazes frescoes and colour washes
Washes and glazes create a richness and depth that flat colour cannot achieve and add beauty and elegance to an interior.
Painted glazes and washes can also be brushed and textured. Dragging for example, is the elegant, two-tone pattern created by dragging a brush through wet glaze to create fine vertical lines. This technique was popular in Georgian interiors, which favoured painted doors, window casements and panels. When finished with varnish, dragging can also provide a soft, antique effect that is practical enough for today’s kitchen cupboards and cabinets.
