Sometimes, all you need is the right piece of furniture.
And the right image. 
And Copper Leaf.
A love for detailing.
Then add texture.
And the rest….Just happens.

Thank you Suzan! I appreciate the kind words 🙂
This dresser is one amazing piece of art. It takes my breath away.
Hi Donna – Thank you! It was a lot of fun to do 🙂
WOW! I so love this…WOW AGAIN;) Very unique…totally awesome! This is an eye catcher!!! AWESOME JOB:) lol! Okay, I’ll stop:)
No, keep going 🙂
Jaw droppingingly beautiful! Some of us paint furniture and some of us are artists with furniture. You are the latter!
Blessings,
Patti
Thank you, Patti. I think in this case, the image just really felt right with the shape of the piece. I will take any compliment I can!
You are a true artist!
So kind, thank you 🙂
Just amazing… beautiful….
There’s a long line of WOW’S coming out of my mouth! You are very talented and I just love this!
Thank you, Jan. I’ll take a ‘wow’ any day of the week!
Wow, wow!! I adore this! Great job!
Sherry
Thank you Sherry!!
Stunning, as always <3
Wow! This is absolutely amazing! Your work is so beautiful. Question…. is that a poster you decoupaged to the dresser or did you freehand it on? I have seen images like this on furniture before and love it, but cannot tell how it was done. If this is paper you did an unbelievable job getting it on! I’d love to try it but can’t quite figure out what to do. Can you share a little????? Please???? THANKS!
Hi Laurie,
This is image transfer. All of my pieces that include fine art are done using that method. Check out the tutorials on here, there’s a link to show you how. Have fun! Diane
Phenomenal workmanship, and I love the copperplating! I too have seen years ago this beautiful image done as a quilt. I had the same question as Laurie above, as I have recently been looking into transferring of images onto wood. I was not able to click on ‘here’ in your response to check out a tutorial. Would you be able to email it to me? Thank you so much!
Hi Catherine,
Thank you for coming to the page. I have 4 post dealing with imagine transfer. If you can’t access them, just let me know. Diane
Gorgeous!
Thank you, Virginia!
This a fabulous piece! Your painting skills are amazing! The texture and aging is unbelievable. Continue your good work, you’re a star!!! You’ll be featured next post,
thanks so much for sharing with us.
Patti
Very cool!! Thanks Patti, I appreciate the show of support 🙂
Hello Diane,
Absolutely, stunning work! I am with loss of words upon seeing your gorgeous dresser. I, too, am eager to see your transfer technique but, cannot find the link. I would really love to see more!

JP, it should be under tutorials. I’m changing the layout, so things may be a little crazy for the next few days :/
I can certainly see how you won the 2015 General Finishes Award. Your work is so amazing – couldn’t begin to say which ones are my favorites. I wrote earlier asking where you get you pictures but not sure where the answer will show up. Also, on the close-up of the above dresser, I see a hint of crackle. Did you do that after applying the transfer?
Thank you, Della! I’ve been collecting prints for a while now. As long as you get it copied into laser print, you’re good. I do use crackle over the image (I use Modern Masters crackle, but they have stopped making it!).
Well, this is just what I needed today. Painting an old buffet for my new dining room in a 116 year old (not an old beauty) an added on , that will have charm when done. We are doing it
Romantic Prairie and collect lace, buffalo skulls, spurs, mirrors and art.
I love painted furniture , currently doing chalk paint on old 1950’s chairs, to be covered tonight with coffee bean burlap that has red coffee cups and other print on them.
After seeing the lovely buffets painted, distressed and waxed wish I had done mine that way. But the area is so small and will be dominated by a 4 x 10 sculpted glass top table, (got the top free off Craigslist) so will just have to dream for the future.
I now have the courage to dream, experiment and try to create the lovely items you have mastered.
Wow wow wow and wow
Sounds wonderful!! You need to post some photos, I’d love to see them!
