Decorative Arts, Whats The Difference?

I suppose to most there really is no difference to Faux Finishing,

Personally, there is a huge difference as there is a much higher degree of education in my opinion. The Decorative Arts have more to do with the finer side of hand painting and ornamental work such as graiselle, grotesque and even stenciling. Some may call me nuts for making a statement like that but in my opinion, I believe it's true.

It's like trying to explain the difference between a mural and a fine art mural. However, once you have learned to paint them both the differences are too obvious. It's not to say that one is better than other it's knowing it when you're tracking your painting career over the years.
