The marble paint effect is an ancient painting technique, yet even today provides an affordable alternative to buying real marble. Real marble countertops, flooring and other decor is very expensive and heavy so you have to consider whether the material is suitable for rooms above the ground floor. A practical alternative is hand-painted marble, and the black and gold marble effect is a stylish, modern alternative to grey marble. Learning this technique gives you complete control over the colour and intensity, and if it gets marked or damaged you can easily touch-in and repair the paint work.
