We are happy to announce a new Powertex instructor and supplier in Niagara. She will be teaching in various venues throughout southwestern Ontario, including of course, Niagara Falls. 

Roberta Birnbaum

Roberta Birnbaum is a Niagara Falls artist and instructor offering classes and workshops in: mixed media, Powertex fabric sculpture, stone art decor, paper arts, and resin.  She holds workshops in her home studio and various locations throughout the region. 

Roberta also offers 'Classes2Go' which is a service where she will come to your group (minimum 6) in your home, rec centre, school and bring an art class to you, including all supplies and tools. It is a convenient, fun and affordable way to create with friends. 

Roberta's next Powertex workshop is scheduled for February 8, 2015 at The Niagara Artists Studio, Niagara Falls.

learning with Anja

 



 

 

I am working non-stop getting ready for the Studio Tour
 taking place on the third weekend of September from the 20-21st.
 Therefor I've added extra classes for October.

Each workshop will be a mixed one, where you can choose what you would like to create that day. New classes will now include the opportunity to learn how to make an ostrich, fairy, African figurine or a different style of blue heron (photo's to be included on my website shortly) as well as the ability to work with stone art, its a crushed paper mache if mixed with Powertex it makes a clay .

Powertex just launched a new product called Easy3DFlex, an inorganic filler/binder in powder form, mixed with Powertex which creates a paste to enable you to easily work with paintings or sculpt in 3D, this medium gives cracks in thick layers by exposing to heat.



I have already seen the results of working with this product and it looks great. The product just arrived in Canada,  and my first order has just arrived. I am hoping I can add this to the list of workshops in the fall….I will keep you posted!.
 
Mark your calendars TODAY to ensure you reserve a spot!
