THE MARKET
Now more than ever Decorative Artists who hope to increase their client base, must respect their client's limits. More
importantly, they need a clear understanding of costs, a process
flexible enough to adjust as the project evolves, and the creative
know-how to do more with less. The question to be asking your client
is, "How do we best spend the money you’ve budgeted?"
That
being said, we all noticed our lovely city and surrounding
areas prospering wildly. So please brag about your
adventurous
creations that peak the imagination of Austin's Faux Artists and
designer expectations alike. Fun times come upon us
again. Consequently, I'm teaching Metallics and Glazes with
some cutting edge surprises. Come have a look.
Our classes do run full with small classes of no more than two
students at a time. Choose a week
and find the most exquisite interior wall coating products in the world.
CLASSES
Classes
are now held in our little studio/warehouse in west Austin. Our main class remains focused
on the Old World European Finishes of Mediterranean Stucco, Roman
Piazzo, French Country, Italian Venetian Plaster, Marmorino, and a Tuscany
Glaze with products from Italy, England, and the America's. We
also feature classes in Metalics, Glazes,
and Furniture & Cabinet Finishes. All of our classes feature Terms, Tools and Techniques allowing you to create sample boards of the highest quality and
continue on to re-create these beautiful finishes for your home or for
your client. We are geared to insure the conveyance of
clear information, hands-on expertise and a comfort level required by
homeowners and career enthusiasts alike. You will receive the
appropriate Austin School of Faux Finishes class book, chocked full of
quick reference material and ideas. Along with beautiful samples you
create and a highly respected graduation certificate you are set to go. (See Classes Page)
