Faux
Painting School Info a.k.a.
"When chosing a faux finish school..."
Faux
painting school owner and instructor, Brian Bullard has over 20
years of experience in faux finishing and decorative painting, in the field
in Europe, the United States, and the classroom.
Tip: always
ask an "instructor" where they learned faux painting & how long they
have been active in it. You should ensure that your instructor is still
active in the faux painting field.
The faux painting classes are
in our commercial building, it's a well lit, and comfortable working environment.
Tip: Not
all "faux painting schools" have an actual classroom, ask if the faux painting
classes are in a studio, garage, hotel, etc. Look for wide angle images
of the faux painting classroom on the website, as well as several images
of students at work. Note if they are faux finishing on a table or in a
crowded space.
Everything is supplied in class,
the faux painting tools, paints, even food and drinks, nothing to buy.
We
are one of the only "non product" faux painting schools in the nation,
you can buy and use almost any local paint when you leave.
Tip: always
ask a"faux painting school" if a specific faux painting product is used,
how you will obtain it after classes, and its cost. We do not promote specific
"faux finishing" brands nor do we retail, our objective is teaching you
on locally accessible materials.
We get three types of students: those
who have never done faux painting and want to faux finish for themselves
or for business, people with faux painting experience who want to learn
our methods, and those who opened a faux finishing business and realized
that they needed to go to faux school first.
Tip: always
get the right training before "diving in". I will teach you to price faux
painting properly according to your skill level and local cost of living.
You will leave class with durable,
lightweight, and attractive faux painting samples, and if you fly in
we will wrap them in plastic so you can take them as carry on.
Tip: ask
a "faux painting school" what material you will be painting on, if it is
durable and lightweight, and how you will get your faux finishing samples
home.
We are
in St. Louis, Missouri. 95% of our students come from other states, even
other countries! These students choose us because of what we
offer, if you are considering a future in faux painting, there is a lot
more than a plane ticket riding on it.
Tip: most
fly here round trip through deals on "Expedia.com" and other internet resources.
If you stay at our two nearby hotels we will pick you up and return you
daily, as well as give you a ride to the airport.
