Polyvine.(UK)

DECORATIVE PAINTWORK VIDEO In the past, the secret methods of the broken colour worker were jealously guarded and kept shrouded in mystery. Recently, the secrets of these ancient arts have become more and more accessible through the media. Polyvine's first video - "The complete introduction to Decorative Paintwork on walls and furniture" - has been carefully complied to give a brief but comprehensive step-by-step guide to 14 different broken colourwork and metallic finishing effects, including stippling, rag-rolling, sponging, colour-washing, frottage, dragging, ragging, bagging, combing, cracked paint and frosted effects. Its running time is approximately 46 minutes. www.polyvine.co.uk
