Distressing and Aging

( Click images to enlarge )

In the distressing and aging course you have the opportunity to explore the lucrative art of creating "tomorrow's antiques" today. These techniques apply to molding, furniture, architectural elements and cabinetry. A PowerPoint slide lecture will help you to understand correct placement and use of these finishes, and class will cover the technical aspects of application.

Learn sophisticated worn, chipped, crackled, aged, classic and 'antiqued' finishes on both simple and exquisitely carved molding. Finishes include basic and advanced distressing, faux marquetry, lime wash, rottenstone,hilighting, verdigris, crackle, rust, faux aniline, stone and Negoro Nuri finishes.

They are the perfect complement to the wonderful glazed and textured wall finishes our students are producing, to complete the ensemble in any space.
