**NEW**
Certified SAFRA Applicator Portfolio Builder Course
5 Days
We've streamlined our Certification Course! 25 sample boards in 5 days. This course combines finishes from the old course and finishes from my popular Modern Classics course into one NEW class! You will learn a wide variety of SAFRA products including smooth, polished Venetian plasters, 100% lime plasters, resin plasters, and textured Stucco plasters. We are teaching the traditional methods of application as well as new, updated methods that use less product and save you time and money resulting in more jobs and profit for you. We provide you with a detailed, written handbook, pricing guidelines, help with marketing, and much more. As a BONUS, you will take home FREE, a set of DVDs detailing the finishes learned in class (with a few extras) that are a fantastic visual reminder of the techniques learned in class. A $250 value! Lunch and snacks are provided too. The value of this class can't be beat!
Class available at the reduced rate of $1350 for students registering 30 days or more in advance.

Included in this two day class are some of my National Award Winning finishes that are perfect for Transitional decor. We will also be embellishing some of our boards with stencils, Swarovski crystals, and real leaves. Products we will use are: Veneziano, Calcenova, Metallo, Fiorentino, Marmorino, and Rasa Calce.

Private Instruction
Do you have particular finishes you want to learn and/ or a desire for one-on-one training? This is what you're looking for! Use Private Instruction for SAFRA products in addition to decorative finishing, spray techniques, Japanese plaster, stencil application, etc. Please contact Debra in advance to coordinate finishes and dates. A two-day minimum is required for most finishes due to dry times. Rates start at $400/ day plus materials. Feel free to visit our application site for more finish ideas: www.wallartistry.net
