Vestibule ceiling restoration at Weylin B. Seymour's

Vestibule Ceiling Restoration at WEYLIN B. SEYMOUR’S 
(former Williamsburgh Savings Bank)
Two of the main ceilings were digitally re-drawn silk screened and installed on top of the vestiges.
The first one was the seven piece ceiling in the vestibule. I did all I could with it; from this photo puzzle to almost the entire drawing. I concentrated in maintaining the feeling. Once I reached all I could in this “translation”, I started collaborating
the Steve Bauer from Bradbury & Bradbury Art Wallpapers, a Peter B. Wight connoiseur.
The final artwork turned out incredibly well. The following image shows the installation result where the gold ink made a big difference.
The whole process was intense, and there was a lot of trial and error; but we all ended very proud and satisfied with the results. 
One of the main challenges was to keep the main dome’s fresco color palette, as at one perspective point of view in the vestibule, both artworks can be seen and they need to relate and live together. 
Next, a gallery from color tests in my studio through printing and installation by Holly Fisher.
