Classic, Tuscan, Metallics, Suede, Rustic, Modern Techniques Offered

Sedona, AZ (July 11, 2011) – Sedona Parks and Recreation is offering two unique and creative workshops on faux painting. During these hands-on classes, Instructor Linda Coffman will guide you through the beginning skills that will allow you to create your own mouth-dropping painted walls. During the Classic, Tuscan, Metallics workshop, participants learn a faster, easier way to use paint to replicate Old World, stone-like walls, and classic looks for a traditional theme. Learn how to add “bling” from metallics. During the second workshop, Suede, Rustic, Modern, participants are taught an easier, faster way to achieve a soft blend of colors on your wall without the mess of ragging. By using a special wool roller and glaze, students can turn walls into leather. Learn how metallic, stripes and “dry brushing” can change ordinary looks to GREAT. Bring a paint shirt and don’t miss out on the experience Linda has to share.
