Finish Analysis

This new class is a thrilling new concept for us. Over the past few years, we have had many students approach us for help with their favorite pictures, magazines and books with finishes they need to reproduce-this class will teach you that process. Students will be given photos of the inspirations of some of our favorite finishes before making the boards, and on day one, we will as a group select two additional finishes submitted by the students to analyze and reproduce as a class project. Wall, trim and cabinet finishes are included in this portfolio.

2 Day
Course fee: $590
