"Toby Nuttal is one of New York's most prestigious decorative painters. For twenty years he has worked with a celebrated list of clientele, including Gianni Versace, Union Square Café and other restaurants belonging to Danny Meyer , Time Warner Inc, and many high profile private clients. Toby studied at London's School of African and Asian Studies; traveled in India and Sri lanka before concluding he would need a more practical skill than an ability to speak Urdu. He took a City and Guilds course in the traditional skill of wood graining, (he was one of only three students who elected to take the course), and has never looked back. Toby's faux bois is surreal; making the real thing look positively wooden."
