portrait of Master Finisher, Robert Coale

Robert Minturn Coale

In thirty-five years of painting, I have discovered a variety of creative solutions to the problems typically found in structural renovation. A creative finish often achieves the desired effect at a fraction of the cost.

I use powdered pigments to customize color on location, and apply multiple layers of glazes to achieve the color and effects in matching existing finishes such as wood, stone, metal, etc.

Over the years I have cultivated a list of discerning clients by fulfilling a wide range of decorative needs.
