We recently engaged Bloomin'Good for a house painting project. From start to finish, the experience was outstanding. David and his team were punctual, professional, and incredibly skilled. The attention to detail that demonstrated was impressive. They took the time to carefully prepare the surfaces before painting, ensuring a flawless finish. The colour recommendations they provided were spot-on, and the final result exceeded my expectations. Their professionalism, expertise, and commitment to delivering exceptional results make them a top choice. I will definitely be reaching out to Bloomin'Good Port Macquarie for any future painting projects I have.

I've been using Bloomin'Good Painting and Decorating on several occasions since 2005 and recommended the team to my friends and family. I was really happy with the job - both exterior and interior of my house. David and his team were punctual, helpful with an eye for detail. I will certainly recommend his painting services to the people of Port Macquarie and the surrounding area. Finally I would say to David 'Keep up the good work.'

We used David and his team at Bloomin Good and they did a fantastic job for two properties in our property management portfolio. They did it very quickly, were very easy to communicate with and the finished product was as we desired. I will definately use him for future jobs.

MARBLING Part 1

Marbling

Marble is rock limestone which has been crystallized by pressure, intense heat and slow penetration of minerals over a period of thousands of years.

The wide variety of colouring in marbles is due to the penetration of minerals into the faults and cracks in the marble.

Eg: Copper deposits produce green and blue/green patterns

Iron deposits produce yellow, brown, red and pink patterns

Sulphur & Soda produce blue patterns

Magnesium procures black and grey patterns

\"partDecayed Vegetation (peat) produces dark browns and blue/black patterns.

We imitate marble using paints and glazes over a painted ground. To do this we need a piece of the real marble as a guide to the colour and pattern.

You may also wish to produce a marble effect which harmonises with an overall decorative colour scheme, these marble effects are sometimes known as “fantasy marble finishes” because they do not nessarily look like a known type of marble.

Surface preparation is the same as for graining.

Ground colours for marbles

Select a ground colour to suit the marble being imitated.

Eg: Carrara – White

Sienna – White/off white

Vert-de-ver – Black

Black & Gold – Black/Charcoal

St Anne’s – Black

Serpentine – Black/Dark Green

 

Tools and Equipment

  • Sea Sponge for the application of background colours
  • Stipplers and/or stencil brushes for strippling or blending colours
  • A glass palette for mixing colours
  • Clean, lint free rags and cheesecloth used for softening effects or for removing colour to expose the background
  • A range of small brushes including fitches and writing pencils for applying veins and other effects
  • A badger and hog hair softeners used for blending and softening the applied colour glazes
  • Goose feathers for applying or removing colours
  • A rubber eraser with a chisel wedge point for removing colour

Backgrounds for Marbling

There are various methods of simulating marble backgrounds, usually done in this water colour. Make sure the ground has been abraded with 400 w/dry and rubbed with a damp rag dipped in whiting to prevent cissing.

Sponge Strippling

  • Pick a sea sponge with plenty of pattern
  • Put the water colour onto a glass palette
  • Charge the sponge with the water colour
  • Dab onto the surface unevenly across the area
  • Whilst still wet, soften with a badger (in all directions)
  • The process may be repeated if a stringer effect is preferred.
