Bens Decorations: murals, Venetian plaster, sculpted walls, texture and paintings

Painted straight onto the wall or ceiling: skies, landscapes, a window onto somewhere else. Trompe l'oeil where the room wants it.

Three-dimensional relief built up in plaster and lit so it throws its own shadows. A coastline, a tree, a shape that is only yours.

Lime plaster laid thin, coat over coat, then burnished with a steel trowel until it shines like stone. Marble effect with a gold vein if you want it.

Surfaces with a grain you can feel: lace pressed into wet plaster, bark, stone, cloth. Walls that change with the light across the day.

Oil and acrylic on canvas, signed Ben. Still lifes, figures, landscapes, a painting made for the room it hangs in.
