"Pay What You Can" LIVE Furniture Paint Workshop
The "Pay What You Can" workshop is a chance for everyone, beginner through advanced, starving artist to seasoned professional, to get a chance to learn something new and broaden your painting portfolio.
In the paint world, where there are so many amazing artists creating gorgeous finishes that sell almost instantaneously upon completion, there are also those artists who may be work from home mamas or young adults who are exploring their creative side with the hope of paying off student loans. THIS CLASS IS FOR YOU! I was once you...mama of 2 little guys (with the third on the way when I started and now mama to 4!), moving from my husband's once bachelor pad to our family home that was a bit more spacious with hardly no budget to furnish the place. This is where it all started for me 8 years ago... At the time, "chalk painting" was not popular in our area yet. There definitely were not super-cool online LIVE tutorials I could follow along with and learn from the professionals. I learned from trial and error (with lots of errors at the beginning!) and learned to stretch boundaries and create looks that only existed in my head. Years later, after opening up my brick and mortar store, teaching hundreds of awesome people different paint techniques, and going to get certified so I could sound professional telling people I was our area's only "Certified Paint Professional," I decided this class would be my way of assisting those who were just like me not too long ago. I only wish something like this would have been around when I was first starting out.
In February, we will be painting a piece of furniture from start to finish. This in-depth class will go over everything from how to prep your furniture (including my favorite products to use!), painting, adding character to your piece using certain brush strokes and sealing for years of enjoyment. Below is a sample of one of the many looks you will be able to create after this class.
What to Expect for February 8, 2020:
* A 2-3 hour online class in a private Facebook group. You will be added to this group after you have made the minimum donation. The total class length will be anywhere from 2-3 hours depending on the number in attendance, the number of questions asked and allotted dry time.
* Full supply list will be provided in the group as soon as you join.
* The class will be live, however, if you cannot watch it live, don't worry as the class will be available for 60 days after it is recorded.
* A full written list of instructions will be available to each person in the class, so they can print it out and follow them step by step along with watching the video.
You will learn everything from start to finish, prep to sealing. And, if you are able to be there for the LIVE class, there will be a Q&A session where you can ask me anything paint-related.
Spots are limited and many of our classes sell out fast so SIGN UP TODAY! I look forward to helping you create something beautiful!
