Prima Art Venture 2021 is online!

 Hi, my Dears! Are you ready for some creative fun?

I'm sure many of you heard about the biggest classes organised by Prima every year - Art Venture! 

I was one of the teachers there is almost every edition and I enjoyed it so much - a huge gathering of people, 6 teachers, 3 classes with mindblowing kits and projects per day - it was a wonderful creative marathon, a great way to start the year artistically! 

Many of the international mixed-media fans were hoping one day they will be able to join - but such a big journey is not always easy to organise and plan... but THIS YEAR IT IS POSSIBLE - Prima Art Venture is going ONLINE - bigger then ever an with the line-up of teachers like never before: 


Prima Marketing and Charity Wings did everything to keep the atmosphere of the event as close to original as possible - providing not only wonderful selection of teachers who prepared classes with beautiful, inspiring projects and more than generous kits but offering 12 classes to choose from in several packages and a'la carte options! 

If you are wondering what is my job this year - check out my 2 projects (I'm the only teacher teaching twice due to the size of the kit offered,  covering 2 classes instead of 1).


For the US residents, the packages with the kits are a great opportunity to get the latest Prima products delivered on their doorstep, making the whole calss so easy to follow (and there are some extras added as well!) - this is as always great value for money! 

You can check the packages and classes info here: Art Venture 2021 by Gather


BUT WHAT ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS?

Art Venture 2021 is online - so we are able to offer the CLASS ONLY passes on a discounted rate for the international mixed-media fans who live anywhere outside the US and would like to take the classes at home! This way you can source your products locally - or order them in advance to make sure they will arrive on time. 

I'm so very happy this option is available for all of you, so this event will be a real celebration of creativity all over the world!

To get the info about the discounted packages or kit shipping options - email Charity Wings directly and they will be happy to assist you: info@charitywings.org 

Check out these dates, mark them in your calendar and join us for this amazing celebration of creativity in February 2021!

Vintage Collage Canvas by Anat Weksler

Hello mixed media friends!
It's Anat here. Today I want to share my new project - a Vintage Collage Canvas.



The Canvas was inspired by a Mix of Finnabair's collage projects and Carmen Miranda images!  Carmen Miranda was a gorgeous and colorful Brazilian Singer, who always used on her head Fruits & Flowers Adornment.







I created it in a Vintage style using the amazing Woman image from Carte Postale Tissue paper which covers almost the entire Canvas.



To color the Canvas and match the image I used some wonderful Art Alchemy Liquid Acrylics paints.

Watch the step by step process here:



Hope I have inspired you to create and use these delicious products!

 Thank you for stopping by!
xoxo

Finnabair new products Winter 2020 - vol.2 - Matte Waxes and Art Daily Journals

Hello, my friends!
Yesterday we were sharing our first portion of Winter 2020 inspiration with you and your response was just phenomenal - thank you so much for this!
Today we show you the second part of products from my Winter 2020 release. If you haven't seen the first one - stencils and tissue papers - click here to read the post.


Winter 2020 Release

In this release I have something for you, that is TOTALLY NEW!
I believe you will fall in love with this new range of Waxes as much as I do. My newest line of Waxes is Art Alchemy Matte Waxes, which means they are opaque, antiquing products - and they work amazingly well with acrylic paints or Art Alchemy Metallique Waxes from my range! Below you can see 6 new colours:




967857 - Finnabair Wax Paste - Old White
967864 - Finnabair Wax Paste - Patina Green
967871 - Finnabair Wax Paste - Patina Blue
967888 - Finnabair Wax Paste - Rusty Brown
967895 - Finnabair Wax Paste - Rusty Red
967901 - Finnabair Wax Paste - Charcoal Black

The effect you can achieve with these new babies is different than the one achieved with regular Metallique Waxes. In fact, they are a perfect cross between my Rust and Patina Pastes - as they are matte and antiquing (but NOT textured!) and my Metallique Waxes - with their permanent, water resisting finish, creamy consistency and wax base! Would you like to see what am I talking about? Below you can see some samples:













Aleksandra Mihelic created this beautiful altered project with two new Matte Waxes: Old White and Patina Blue. Once more, notice how different is the effect of Matte Waxes compared to Metallique ones.

968113 - Art Daily Chipboard Journal 5.5x8

Katja Joulak has used my new stencils, new tissue papers and new Matte Waxes to alter the covers of new square Art Journal. Take a look at how fabulous is the effect.

The cover was covered with Charcoal Black Matte Wax that combined with Rusty Brown gave a fabulous, worn, rusty effect.
