Master Class in Saint Petersburg

December 4–5, 2015: "Kraski Briz" (Breeze Paints) Made Its Mark in Another Corner of Russia – We Visited Saint Petersburg!

The purpose of our trip was a master class dedicated to decorative coatings manufactured by our company.

The event was organized by our partner Elena Savokina from the decorative finishes salon "Muscari", Saint Petersburg.

"The Best for the Best" – this could well be the slogan for this event, as it brought together the most talented applicators, decorators, artists, and faux finish painters from across the region: Chișinău, Kyiv, Sevastopol, Pyatigorsk, Voronezh, and more!

During the master class, Kraski Briz specialists demonstrated a wide range of materials and application techniques:

  • Gilding and Aging of Stucco Moldings – presented by technologist Oleg Sitkovsky. Special thanks to Valery Gorbach for providing the stucco elements.
  • Concrete & Vintage Finishes – demonstrated by Alexander Bezukh, with further creative development by the talented artist Elena Kovalevskaya.
  • Cast Iron Imitation on a Wooden Lattice, plus Steel and Bronze Effects using the "Dry Brush" technique on stucco – by Vladimir Karmirkodiyan.

Additional highlights included:

The presence of the remarkable artist and our dear friend Leonid Kim brought immense joy to all participants!
