Some ideas you can use Paolo Caliari
- Earth colours are great when you have a cold home and want to add some warmth. Don't forget Chalk Finish Paint is okay for walls and can be used indoors and outdoors.
- if you want to create a a antique wash apply a base coat of Sandro bottocelli or Fra Angelico and once dry apply a coat of Paolo Caliari diluted with 2 parts roma wash and one part paint and wipe off excess with damp lint-free rag until you are happy with the effect (see photos).
- as per the photos see how the contrast with white give a clean finish against the natural
Once finished for protection you could:
- apply a coat of clear soft wax to leave a smooth satin finish
- apply a clear soft wax and once dry apply a dark soft wax for an antique look
- For a hardwearing finish such as a table top then we recommend Glaze & Medium for a satin clear finish
- For dark colours you could use liming or white wax to soften paint colour
- Leave Au natural as a matt finish
Paolo Veronese’s (paolo Caliari) paintings are grandiose and magnificent visions of the spectacle of sixteenth-century Venetian life. His art is inextricably linked to the idea of opulence and splendour in Renaissance Venice. The works of Veronese are crowded compositions with theatrical effects, in which groups of sumptuously dressed characters reenact religious and secular events. During his prolific and highly successful career, Veronese produced paintings ranging from complex fresco decorations for villas and palaces to large-scale altarpieces, smaller devotional paintings, portraits, and mythological, historical, and allegorical pictures.
