Looking for unique indoor activities to try this weekend? Join Live For Art's fluid art class in Melbourne and learn the Bloom style of fluid art!
In this class, you'll learn the 'Bloom' acrylic pouring technique from a friendly professional and then paint six or 12 ceramic coasters. After a quick demonstration from your teacher, you'll get the chance to get creative with colours and techniques to create your own unique coaster designs. You will learn two styles of Bloom, blowing on the paint and swiping.
This class will cover:
- How to prepare your coasters
- How to mix paints and paint mediums suitable for these techniques
- The specific recipe needed for this technique and what difference this makes
- How to choose colours and layer your paints in the cup or on the coaster
- How to mix pigments
- How to create beautiful cells or lacing in your art (without silicone oil).
You can choose from round or square ceramic coasters, or have a mix of both. The coasters come with stick on cork backings to protect your home surfaces when complete too.
If you would like to have a black metal stand to hold your set of six or twelve coasters with their own gift boxes, you can select this add-on at checkout.
Please note:
- If you are keen to do more coasters, and choose the upgrade to 12 coasters, please allow another 30 mins of class time.
- Coasters need to be finished with varnish or resin to make them water proof and suitable for use with hot or cold drink. Information will be given about how to do this, or you can attend a resin class to complete.
- You will use non-toxic acrylic paint.
- Maximum class of 8 participants for this style.
- All participants will have their own desks.
