For two decades I watched the painting industry move from hazardous oils to less harmful (but still toxic) latex. During this time I was exploring natural alternatives such as clay, milk, lime, flour and linseed oil. But today we are witnessing the birth of high tech, high-performance, ZERO TOXIC paints, stains and finishes. And guess what? They work!<br /><br />Green products are revolutionizing the industry<br /><br />No longer are eco products limited to interior, low-traffic applications. There are now nontoxic paints for interior AND exterior surfaces. These products are durable and waterproof, including sealers for: decks, shingles, concrete patios, brick, stone, tile, stucco, driveways, walkways and landscape borders. There are epoxies, urethanes and non-skid coatings for docks and pool areas. You can even coat the concrete lining of the pool itself.<br /><br />Ecos Paints, an earth-friendly paint manufacturer in the UK, has developed a paint containing particles of nickel, which block and reflect microwave, X-ray and computer emissions. This is great news for people who work in hospitals and busy offices. The most exciting news in the painting industry is the recent development of solar paint. It's not on the market yet, but the next time you paint your house, you may be saving on your electric bill!

Fantastic information about innovation in the painting field, snapshots form different cities and a way for people to hook up and work together are all featured here.<br /><br />I believe that as a professional in the field of Painting and Coatings that I have a duty to constantly learn environmental interdependence policies, to teach and share the information that Strong River Painters LLC has learned and to help train and inspire people to truly live in environments that create harmony and prosperity.<br /><br /><strong>My influences have been the heart felt guidance of Mr. Shai - Feng Shui Master, The Kaygu Nyingma Shambhala Zen upbringing I had in Colorado, Halifax and NYC over the last 28 years. The spiritual building techniques I was exposed to and taught in building the Kami Shrine and Great Stupa of Dharmakaya in Colorado. These two projects coupled with my training in Bali have created a vision for responsible harmonious craftsmanship.<br />I have been on scholarships in the painting arenas of Yale University Norfolk Program and Bard College. <br />I have studied Art and Art History in Nepal, China, Vietnam, Thailand, Burma, Indonesia, Australia, France, Canada, Mexico, United States, Chile, Brazil, and Argentina. </strong><br /><br />The Rose Foundation, the 2010 Olympics, Vertical Gardens, Lotus Molecular paint from Sweden- so much to talk about...<br /><br />I believe a city's health can be judged on how it cares for its dead and how it deals with waste and surplus building material. I am currently looking at Vancouver's approach and am hopeful as the weeks unfold.<br /><br />My lovely wife Marta and I have recently moved to Vancouver for her release and touring dates in two great bands. I am back in NYC for two painting design contracts in January, but until then I will be networking, researching and working on the west coast. Please feel free to email me directly at strongriverpainters@gmail<br /><br />The first year of business in New York was a tremendous success with rave reviews in Apartmenttherapy.com Brownstoners and a future edition of Men's Vogue for our work in the Blackstones project.<br /><br />Please stay in touch and feel free to post your painterly/social/historical/architectural observations all over this blog.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7129203060494036403-8195206649071548780?l=williampainter.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Edward Strong River Painter Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06336020903744255609noreply@blogger.com1
