Thinking about trying one of these designs in your home?

Experienced house painter Stephen Cochrane has some words of wisdom. 

“It’s a great time to be a painter!” he says. “We always say you will never notice a flawless paint job, but you will notice every flaw in a shoddy paint job. We usually take pride in having our work go purely unnoticed. But we’re excited to be invited to create art spaces in people's homes. I am really enjoying this trend. I hope it lasts forever.”
