Faux Painting Classes

Faux painting classes are very intriguing and can be sought after for many reasons by those who want to start their own Faux Painting Business, refine their Faux Painting skills, learn new Faux Painting Techniques, or so they may apply their own finishes in their own homes. For whatever reason there are plenty of classes that can be taken all over the country.

What Type of Faux Painting Classes to Take

When thinking about taking Faux Painting Classes they should be actual places you will need to show up at and participate in with an instructor. Good classes will take what you are learning and practice them on sample boards which can then be used as a Faux Painting Portfolio to display your techniques and finishes to clients or for your own reference.

Places to take classes

Below is a list of places you can look at should you want to take some faux painting classes. As with anything you should check the reputation of the company and look at more than one place to compare. Calling the company is also a good thing to do as well. The first on the list is one I attended the Pennsylvania school and found it to be extremely reputable. I left with a very professional portfolio! Leave me a comment if you want to know more. I will continue to update this list.

If you know of more places please leave a comment and I will add it to the list once I review it.
