This is a faux flagstone design done with Scofield Lithochrome Chemstain on existing concrete after the removal of black
 "cutback" tile adhesive.  You can read more about this project in Gaye Goodman's acid-staining newsletter here.  This project
won Honorable Mention in American Painting Contractor Magazine's Year 2003 TOP JOBS Awards.  As the best testament to
how real these rocks look close up, the homeowner's young grandchildren play "hopscotch" on them while they are visiting!

The rock pattern was first drawn out on the floor using soapstone.  Then the grout was painted in, using a water-
based acrylic stain, and sealed with a water-based acrylic sealer to protect it during the staining of the rocks.  The
rocks were done individually, each one layered with different shades of acid stain to give them "natural" coloring.
