Faux painting classes and business workshop

ADVANCED TECHINQES

All of the faux painting techniques taught in this class are explained to give you a thorough understanding of each technique and how to apply them to real world situations. You will learn and receive literature on surface preparation, tool selection, proper base topcoats and choosing the best mediums to complete your finishes. You will learn how to work in and out of corners as well as over your head. Most importantly, you will obtain the confidence to recreate the finishes you learn with consistency every time.

Note: These finishes can be created using any color. All of these colors can be changed to match any paint color from any manufacturer or a custom color can be made upon request.
