PROJECT SUPPLIES:
INSTRUCTIONS:
1 | Base paint with a white, high-hiding, all purpose primer.
2 | Using a nappy winnie roller, apply two coats of Golden Paintworks Metallic Whisper, let dry between coats. Apply full coverage, rolling in a random pattern; for this application overlapping paint lines is not a concern.

3 | Mix 1 part Golden Paintworks Metallic Whisper with 2 parts Metallic Texture Pearl, then mix in Extra Fine Silver Glitter (1 teaspoon for every 6 ounces of paint). Using a 4” chip brush, apply the paint in an “X” pattern, partially overlapping each “X”.

4 | Complete one wall at a time without any “stops and starts,” to provide a more uniform look.
Here is the final finish.

About the Artist
Shiree, of Shiree Nichole Designer Finishes LLC, based in Naples, FL, has been in the faux art industry for over twenty years. The oldest of four girls, born in Newport Oregon and growing up in southwest Montana. She comes from a hard-working family with her father as a logger and later owning a drywall business. All four girls worked in drywall and much of Shiree’s knowledge and love for texture comes from working with her father. Shiree loves learning about new products, techniques and the chemistry behind the product. Shiree believes there is nothing like on-the-job training, experimenting, and she’s always open to learning something new. Shiree loves the diversity of finishes she creates and the collaboration she has with designers and decorators. In addition to her work creating decorative finishes, Shiree began honing her fine art skills in 2006 with oils on canvas and over the years has expanded to abstract acrylic art on Lucite and watercolors.
