NEWS: (LOS ANGELES, Calif.) 40 creative painting artisans attended the New Decorative Wall Techniques for 2016 Class at Meoded Paint and Plaster at the showroom in Hollywood on February 18. Meoded Classes have been expanded this year because of the high demand for unique finishes from interior designers, home and business owners.
Social media sites such as Houzz and Dwell have brought client expectations higher because they are able to research ideas on the internet and compare the skills of craftsman everywhere in the world. This continuous evaluation has prompted the need for advanced techniques which can only be achieved through on-going education.
Meoded offers training in the areas of faux finishing, Venetian plaster, wood graining, faux marble, gliding, stenciling and other techniques that are unmatched in the industry. They work with professionals to show them what’s new in the decorative wall marketplace and how to use new the materials as well as showing some tried and true techniques. With these creative tools, each and every class member can learn how to become a more sought after professional.
“Since there are so many new and interesting finishes, we decided to offer a more targeted approach to our clients,” stated Vladimir Charaschevski, manager at Meoded. “Whether its metallic paints, polished, stenciled concrete, Tuscan plaster techniques-the list goes on. We offer classes for painters, drywall and muralists who have a set of issues that we address in the paint and construction classes. We also offer classes for interior designers, architects and hospitality designers so that we can address their concerns and questions. Each class is creatively different and that’s what keeps people coming back because pros never know what they are going to need until they are on the job. For example, concrete has expanded as a trend because the material is so versatile.”
