Fossilcrete Teams with Frank Lewis' Decorative Concrete Series

This special three-day training session offered hands-on instruction for replicating natural items such as rocks, boulders, and trees using FossilCrete’s vertical stamping material. With input from the Orange County Zoo and its director, Forest DeSpaine, designs were sketched that emulated the natural landscape throughout the zoo. The FossilCrete training course utilized framing and stamping techniques that provided structure and texture. Natural-looking colors were created using FossilCrete’s Nature’s Palette Coloring System.

With the help of FossilCrete’s vertical stamping material, an ordinary utility pole was turned into a natural-looking oak tree, and a mountain lion exhibit was transformed from a cedar shingle wall into a naturalistic desert rock wall.

FossilCrete, a division of Shasta Industries, recently moved its corporate headquarters to Phoenix, Ariz., from Oklahoma.
