Industry Reviews Ronald and Roberts, who own a home furnishings shop, cover more than paint techniques here. Covering everything from papier-m?ch? to pinched tin designs to fabric painting, they have updated the materials used to include environmentally friendly latex paints. Sutcliffe (Decorating Magic, Pantheon, 1992) covers many of the same techniques described in Jocasta Innes's New Paint Magic (Pantheon, 1992), such as sponging and marbling, as well as the use of distemper and milk paints found in Judith and Martin Miller's Period Finishes and Effects (LJ 1/93). Again, instructions for the use of latex paints make the paint effects as described here easier to apply and clean up after. Since both books contain easy-to-follow instructions, they are recommended if more paint-effects books are needed. Stefanatos
