What Happens at an Autentico Chalk Paint Workshop — Our Summer Social 2014 WRAP-UP

27/11/2014

0 Comments

 
For the record — I love Workshop Day.
Creatives coming together, learning, experimenting, painting up a storm.
Throw in good food, lots of laughter, new friendships and it's pretty much a perfect day!
Our Autentico Chalk Paint Summer Social was exactly that.

Me and my happy assistant, Alison, ready to go!
My personal preference is to keep classes fairly small.
This means seats fill up fast, but it allows more one-on-one time, 
individual questions and  greater flexibility with the class curriculum.

If you'd like to enquire about organising a private Workshop for up to 12 
(Hen's party, special occasion, family celebration or corporate event), 
it can be scheduled and designed to suit your needs (including catering, etc...)

The diversity of Workshop participants is one 
of my favourite things about these creative classes, 
every person brings their ideas and experience to the table. 

We have first-time painters, business owners, upcyclers, 
hobbyists, artists, interior designers, event stylists, vintage enthusiasts and 
so many others coming from all over South Australia to participate 
and learn about no-sand, no-prep Chalk Paint .
We've also been honoured with  interstate participants 
 who have flown in just for a Workshop!

Our Workshops run at a pretty fast and steady pace throughout. 
After a brief intro, we get straight into painting.
Several techniques are demonstrated, taught and trialled
including painting on glass, metal and varnished timber.
We also learn about distressing, layering and waxing with
everyone selecting their own colours and colour combinations
for their take-home projects.

Taking a break from getting our paint on
After we've got most of our projects underway, 
we break for a lovely tea on the deck, enjoying the view and the food.

We worked up quite an appetite!
Time to get back to work and finish up those projects!

Practicing a few different techniques and painting styles
We put into use the technique of using Autentico Chalk Paint as a stain 
and had a quick lesson on stencilling which these ladies ran with!
