Can You Paint Faux Brick Over Plaster?
Faux is a French word that means fake. Faux finishing is a form of trompe l’oeil, which means “to fool the eye,” and painting bricks onto a wall certainly does that. By adding shadows around the edges of the bricks, they will stand out and appear realistic. The plaster wall need not be smooth, but it is easier to work on if it is. Making templates from sponges can save you a lot of time and effort, so consider making one or more so you will be able to move along at a good pace.
