Faux Painting: Zebra Print Floorcloth

Zebra print floorcloth that I just finished painting with black faux felt pinking edge (made with heavy-duty faux leather for durability).

This one is now available at Pia Sjolin Design in Canton, CT.
Or you may custom order one in any size or shape from me directly.

All floorcloths are hand-painted on doubel primed heavy-weight canvas using water-based paints and three coats of water-based polyurethane. They are finished with a coat of wax for added protection.

Perfect in front of the kitchen sink or under high-chairs, for easy clean up of spills.

I have one friend who is ordering one to put under her African Gray's bird cage. I think that is a great idea!

I will post more designs as I complete them. I am working on a Safari series right now. My intention is to create exotic and organic designs that will look even better with age and wear. I am inspired by African and tribal art and also, the glazed concrete floors at Whole Foods Markets.

Larger floorcloths can be made for use under dining room or dinette tables and smaller ones for under pet bowls.
