In this workshop of the day you will learn a faux marbling technique. Please prepare anything larger than a shoebox with a satin paint. Decide before class what color marble you would like and basecoat your item with a lighter value of your color. EXAMPLE: if you want a light green marble--- basecoat with the light green and bring the darker green to class. I will have glazes for you to practice with and after lunch you will be able to enhance your piece of furniture using the materials and information you learned in the morning. Wear an apron to keep your clothes clean!
