Decorative Design

Decorative painting of borders, centerpieces, scrollwork and medallions.

One of the main considerations when developing decorative designs is the existing decorative elements. Where possible, I like to use the forms or the styles of existing elements as a reference point for any additional decoration. This way I can be sure that the new decoration will be in harmony with the overall scheme.

In the absence of any such decorative starting point, it's usually a question of determining the period or style that is desired and designing the details to suit them. Sometimes, of course, there are no specifics and then it becomes a matter of establishing the right feeling.

Whichever route is used though, whether creating a centerpiece, or a border, the idea is to add character and interest.

Select the images on the right to see larger pictures and read details about each project. Some of these are big files so they may take some time to show up.
