GOLD PAINTING WORKSHOP DEMO
Residential Design Show, April 1+2, 5:30pm Boston

Glimmering in glamorous interiors

Dry

Gold paintings and walls are found in many of today's high style residences, like gold accents or jewelry for interior design. Discover golden walls, gold ceilings, golden garden chairs, gold screens, gold faux finishes, golden textures, stripes and borders, gold threads and more at the Residential Design gold demo April 2 at 5:30. The demo begins with examples of decorative gold painting followed by demonstrations of ten different gold and metallic colors and glazes, using sponges, brushes, and rags to show how gold colors change when painted over black, red or other colors, and how different golds look in layers.

  • > Thank you for bringing an exciting arrangement to the Amos Fortune Forum Very creative - outstanding! I love your works at Sunflowers. They are fabulous, and I knew who had done them as soon as I saw they were hanging. Congratulations and thanks,
    - Barbara Danser

    > Your Park Theatre windows are great! The response has been wonderful. It is a pleasure to sit at the light and look at the windows. Thank you! Job well done!
    - Nancy Belletete

    > Alderman's work is
    a wonderful combination of Modern and Post-Modern elements, as she
    creatively combines past and
    present, giving us multi-layered
    views of diverse worlds that
    include the Rennaissance, the19th,
    20th and 21st centuries. Her view
    is refreshing, poignant,
    and magical.
    - Dr. Katherine Hoffman
    Chair, Fine Arts Department
    St. Anselm College


    > Alderman's art combines
    serious purpose, wit, and whimsy
    in an engaging alchemy. In the
    multi-layered images of her
    Cyber Heroes project for the
    National Academy, she makes
    past and present speak to each
    other in a lively dialog. Icons of
    New York's Gilded Age mingle
    with references to the city of
    today, while figures formed of
    dotted lights march in front,
    as if into the future. The effect
    is visually stunning and
    thought-provoking.
    - Diana Wolfe Larkin, Ph.D.
    Art Historian


    > It's fantastic what you did
    with the light man, the bulbs,
    the reflection, and the firemen,
    and everything... with the
    silhouette of the light man
    walking behind. I love him.
    It looks great.
    - Tom Petrovich, Manager
    Bergdorf Goodman, NYC


    > The best I've seen in years.
    - Dr. Francis W. O'Connor
    Art critic and historian, NYC


    > lovely website! oh, what a
    pleasure to see your work
    and get a sense of all the
    richness you're scattering
    forth in the world. if there
    was ever a time when beauty
    and creativity are needed
    to keep us all going, now is it!
    congrats and love,
    felicity



    > Your work just gets more
    and more interesting.
    Wonderful. Love it.
    - Steve

    > Amazing decorative arts.
    The silver wall looks so
    attractive with the art work.
    Thanks for a great post.
    - Fred

    >This is a fabulous
    collection of work.
    - Mary

    >There was a young woman
    named Holly, I thought hiring
    her to paint was sheer folly,
    Perhaps I'm being coy,
    When I say,
    "Quelle trompe d'oeil! It is
    worthy of Salvadore Dali!"
    - John Kernochan, owner
    Brickyard Realty Trust

    Thanks so much for presenting
    "Public Murals Around the
    County and Around the World"
    for our Thursday Morning
    Lecture Series.... As I said, I've
    attended hundreds of lectures
    here, and it had to be the most
    enjoyable I've experienced yet.
    You have so much to offer: a
    wealth of information, an
    incredibly inspiring passion
    for your subject, and a warm
    and gracious personal style.
    Your openness and willingness
    to respond to questions and
    comments was most appreciated.
    - Paula Ogier
    Cambridge Center for
    Adult Education

    > Such a feast you produced.
    It really felt like a visual banquet.
    Following your growth as an artist
    is really a swooping magic carpet
    ride--probably on one of your
    tapestries. It was such a treat
    to see you amid the excitement
    of your work... thank you for
    bringing into being such
    imaginative and wonderfully
    executed fabric and images."
