INTRODUCTION COURSE ON THE SGRAFFITO TECHNIQUE (FR) (FULLY BOOKED)

Come and discover the sgraffito technique at the Maison Autrique, in theory and IN PRACTICE!

As part of the exhibition Privat Livemont, Art Nouveau artist who produced posters and numerous sgraffiti in Schaerbeek, the craftsman Marc Frognet will accompany you for a weekend to create your own sgraffito.

After an introduction to the history and technique of sgraffito and a guided tour of the streets of Schaerbeek to see some of Privat Livemont's work, you'll work individually on a 40x30cm panel and learn how to apply the plaster, prepare the poncif, engrave and apply the colours... And this little jewel of your composition will soon be taking pride of place in the middle of your living room!
