A Bulwark of Stonework When this premier Southeastern artist puts brush to canvas, so to speak, it is nearly impossible to tell the difference between his brush strokes and the texture of real stones.

A

world renowned realist painter, Bob Timberlake has been sharing his skilled eye for rich colors and attention to detail with the world for nearly 50 years. For the past several years, Bob has been applying his talents to the homebuilding industry through his stone veneer collection. These one-of-a-kind veneers have a wide variety of both interior and exterior applications, and as stone veneers are growing in popularity as a design choice for fireplaces, chimneys, staircases, home exteriors, outdoor entertainment areas, and much more, these stones offer homeowners a way to personalize their favorite spaces.

While manufactured stones are generally an amalgamation of concrete, aggregate, and pigment, that can fade or crack, the aspects of Bob Timberlake’s ten-piece collection are all real stone and can therefore stand the test of time. Normally, other real stone offerings fail to provide such a wide range of colors or matches, and as a result can be difficult or costly to install. Each collection is hand-picked by the artist, himself, for supreme color accuracy and style. Assorted choices come in both thin and full-thickness options for a varied product.
