Even though faux painting is the fastest growing form of decorative painting in the market today, many are still somewhat unfamiliar with this form of art. Recognized by the unfamiliar as "sponging" or "glazing", it is an agreed-upon alternative to plain white walls. Murals and Faux Painting, Inc. located in Miami has developed an unbelievable, easy to learn, patented (7472450) faux painting system that will most likely revolutionize how faux painting is done. Now time consuming, tedious steps like blotting tools on paper are eliminated because you can faux up to 6 colors at one time, getting just the right amount of glaze needed each time. Dangerously carrying multiple trays up ladders as in other methods will also be a thing of the past because applying the colors on the wall will now be a breeze. Fine artists can paint murals on top of faux painted walls for a wonderful faux fresco look. The tools themselves, that are part of the system, can be used instead of expensive brushes for soft or textured backgrounds of paintings on canvas, too.

Murals and Faux Painting has been in business for 24 years, the last 14 dedicated to the decorative painting business. Sandra Silva is the president and the developer of the Triple S Faux System.
