Featured Venetian Plaster Installer: Norman Petersen
Stucco Italiano Certified Installer Norman Petersen has been working in all aspects of residential construction since his teens, from building new, high-end homes to the simplest remodel projects.
Here’s a project Norman did for Pat and Barry Conger, who won a Venetian Plaster finish at the annual R.A.Y.S. auction. They chose to have the plaster done at their local business office, 4th and Morris Dentistry.
Norman created a lightly distressed Carrara Venetian plaster finish in a grayish red tone.
In addition to Venetian plaster, Norman uses Golden Proceed products, like on this cabinet…
…and this sign…
Norman’s clients benefit from his commercial and residential construction experience.
From his bio:
- I work in a clean, efficient and safe manner.
- I understand most aspects of the building trades. Some very relevant to painting. Such as; will that wall settle and cause the new Italian plaster to crack? Will this electrical issue need to be repaired before we paint this wall? Should we do the mill work before or after the painting? How can we best protect this carpet? Etc.
- I can interface in an informed, knowledgeable way with the other contractors and designers on the project.
Unlike most painters, who tend to have knowledge limited to surfaces, I’m mindful of the full spectrum of the job.
I’ve applied decorative paint and plaster in Street of Dreams projects, doctors offices, design showrooms, for state senators and in luxury suites for captains of industry. I’m just as experienced in humble apartments and single family homes.
From simple paint glaze techniques to multi-layer plaster to intricate Trompe L’Oeil work, I am passionate about what I do.
