Discover the captivating art of dynamic vase painting in our immersive workshop. Using a unique technique of paint pouring and resin application, you’ll transform ordinary vases and canvases into mesmerizing abstract works of art. Watch as vibrant paints cascade over the vase, creating intricate patterns, while the excess spills onto the canvas, forming abstract designs.


After allowing the paint to cure, return for the next Monday class (April 22nd) at the folk school to apply a protective finish, ensuring the longevity and vibrancy of your masterpiece. Then, delve into the final step of the process by encasing your artwork in clear epoxy resin, creating a glossy, professional-quality finish. Within days, witness the transformation of your creation into a stunning centerpiece that reflects your newfound skills and creativity.
