Sarasota School of Faux & Architectural Finishing is pleased to announce the scheduling of this newly developed cabinet and furniture finishing workshop by renowned artist and instructor, Barb Skivington! This fabulous workshop is scheduled for February 15-17, 2010 with discounted registration available until January 1st, 2010!

Have you always wanted to learn how to create truly professional finishes suitable for both new and previously finished cabinetry and furniture finishes that will satisfy even the most discriminating builders, designers, and clients? This workshop will teach you artistically creative and profitable finishes designed to transcend the typical stained or painted finish. Working on actual sample cabinet doors with an extraordinary group of finishing products from Faux Effects, you will learn how to build custom, hand-rendered finishes with depth, beauty, and a quality hand that will encourage the viewer to reach out and touch!

As a registered student in this workshop, you will complete eight elegant cabinet door samples (the six shown above plus two additional beautiful samples) while learning both foundation and advanced techniques for finishing and resurfacing cabinets and furniture! You will be instructed in the application of hand applied layering as well as the use of HVLP sprayers to speed up your production time. Cabinet and furniture finishing and resurfacing are super hot right now and an important and potentially profitable niche market to excel in during this economic downturn. Don't miss this chance to capitalize on this wonderful opportunity to learn these important skills from one of the most respected authorities in the industry on cabinet and furniture finishing!

Proper surface preparation and the use of clear coat materials that are essential for achieving a professional finish will be emphasized, and the use of the FX 2000 Decorator HVLP Spray System from Faux Effects will be covered.

Whether you are looking to create beautiful cabinet finishes for your own use or you are a professional decorative finisher interested in expanding your portfolio with an offering of fine cabinet and furniture finishing techniques, the right combination of expert instruction and quality finishing products from Faux Effects can help you achieve the professional look you are seeking.

These tough economic times are turning our clients thoughts to "re-do" rather that "re-place". This workshop will position you to take advantage of this fast growing trend in todays faux finishing industry! Call today to register for this timely training! Class size is limited and your custom workshop cabinetry samples must be ordered for you soon! 

This three day all inclusive workshop is value priced at $1295.00.
