Our latest project has pushed us to new heights, and we're beyond excited to share our journey with you!

We've got just TWO WEEKS, to transform a visionary design from concept to completion. From the first sketch to the last nail, our team is working around the clock to bring this ambitious project to life.

But that's exactly what we're known for, short turn around, large projects, exceptional finishes.

Big thanks to our incredible crew for their hard work and dedication. This is what happens when passion meets expertise! 🔥👷‍♂️👷‍♀️

An evening alongside Natalie Perkins, learning a new painting skill.

These 3 hrs will focus on an introduction, Concrete effect and Rust.

Little knowledge in painting will be handy as teaching you how to paint is a big ask.

We'll provide all equipment and you will also walk away with a sample.

Concrete Effect:
This part of the session will likely focus on creating a concrete-like texture or appearance on the canvas.
Participants may learn techniques such as layering, stippling, or using specific tools to achieve the desired effect.
Natalie Perkins may demonstrate the process step-by-step, providing guidance and tips along the way.
Participants will have the opportunity to practice and create their own concrete effect under Natalie's supervision.

Rust
In this segment, participants will learn how to create a rust effect in their paintings. nNatalie might demonstrate techniques for layering colors, adding texture, and creating the characteristic look of rust.
Participants will follow along, experimenting with different methods to achieve their desired rusty effect.
Natalie will provide feedback and assistance as participants work on their paintings.

This event will take place on Thursday 7th March

15 spaces available - book here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/brush-up-a-paint-effect-course-tickets-838468691427?aff=oddtdtcreator

What a busy couple of months! It's great to see things starting to get moving again!

We have been working on a variety of projects in the workshop.

One being the Charlotte Tilbury Christmas Advert with Elton John.
It was so good to get the set build for this project and to see our doorbell come to life!

Not only that, the advert is in conjunction with THE ROCKET FUND, an initiative powered by the Elton John AIDS Foundation to drive forward its mission to break the stigma around HIV and to end AIDS for all.
