    Lucarelli Deli Gets A Little Flare From United Plastering


    2011 - 02.21

    Custom Painted Sculpture

    United Plastering contacted me to paint a custom mold that is currently hanging on a wall in Lucarelli’s Deli of Naples, Florida.

    United Plastering specializes in drywall, hardcoat, stucco, & plastering. The large mold above was a totally new concept to me.

    All my life I had painted on canvas, but this 3D project was on a different level than I had experience before!

    With this five day project, I was able to reference a picture that had been taken of the scenery, and bring the sculpture to life!

    I added a shiny gloss to the painted floor to give the “marbled tile” effect.

    I hope that I will be able to work with United Plastering again in the future!
