Raymond Theatre

      Pasadena, California

Plaster repair in the exterior Box Office area, under the Marquee. This section had been modernized in the 1940's with a drop ceiling and false walls. Returning it to its original beauty, I made molds to replace the missing ornamentation. The Center Box Office window on both sides was missing it's classic pediment. I carved these out of water-based clay, made a mold then installed them in cast plaster. 

Subway Terminal Building

   4th and Hill.

The right side altar facade was removed during the renovation. I faux painted on a wood surface a soft white marble effect with a 3, yellow accented inlay panels.

Grauman's Chinese Theatre

       New doors were fabricated by the Warner Brother Studios. I gold leafed the extremely ornate windows  and painted the surrounding entrance by looking at old photos and trying to recreatate the original colors.

Disneyland Hotel Columns

      Anaheim, California

Six exterior columns were installed 4 years ago with vertical seams facing the entrance. Unfortunately, these seams were distracting and deteriorating. With the help of fellow artist Christine Muratore from Chico, CA, I filled the seams with new, durable, yet flexible, caulk and faux finished over these seams, visually blending them in the rest of the column. 

Hollywood Palace Theatre

      Hollywood, California

Another Movie Palace from 1928. The Hollywood Palace, formerly the Hollywood Playhouse, then the El Capitan, now manages by Avalon from NY and Boston. Needing a new look for a new owner, the exterior was brought back to it's original to emphasis the beautiful Spanish Baroque facade. Inside a morrocan theme for it's charming open air pation above the mezannine.
