Would you like to get more confident with dimensional, baroque-inspired compositions? Would you like to add more texture and depth to your projects, and you’d like to know how to marry vintage images and elements with colour? Check out this Mini Video Class – it is just perfect for you!
“Be Brave” is an excellent example of how beautiful, shimmery colours can go perfectly with multiple elements and textures. This Mini Class is focused on building layers and adding details. There is depth, transparency, texture, the richness of embellishments and finally – colour! Although small in size, the canvas feels rich, ornate and sophisticated. This collage is a real eye-candy, and with all the tips, tricks and detailed explanations to follow, you can make your own artwork with confidence!
During the inspirational video, you can watch all the creative processes in detail and learn about the most popular and important mixed-media products, such as gesso and gels. You will step into the beautiful, shimmering world of Mica Powders and Waxes and learn many fun and useful techniques you’d like to use more and more!
“Be Brave” Video Class will take you step-by-step through the process, starting with the very bottom layers: tissue papers and stencils, then building the composition, and then finally to the last details and touches. All the techniques and products are explained and presented in a simple and encouraging way.
As usually in mixed media, all the techniques may be easily applied to other projects on various surfaces to create a unique, inspiring look!
This dynamic, informative and encouraging Video Class is suitable for all – only an elementary crafting experience is needed!

Finnabair
You might know me as Finnabair, but my real name is Anna Dabrowska-Pekocka, and I’m a mixed-media artist, teacher, coach and product designer.
Transforming and upcycling everyday objects is the cornerstone of my craft; to make this “casual magic” possible for everyone, I develop approachable techniques for all skill levels. Between textures and paint, my love for dimensional artwork shaped my distinctive style. Mix in expressive freedom, awakening a creative spark each person holds inside, and therapeutic, releasing powers of art, and you’ll have a picture of my core values.
What had started as a hobby, in 2011 transformed into teaching in-person mixed media classes with immediate success. In 2013, I established a long-term relationship with one of the top craft suppliers worldwide, Prima Marketing; since then, I have counted myself among the most active and best-known product designers in the mixed-media world. The products I come up withstand out thanks to their distinctive style, which is unique to my brand, and blur the line between craft supplies, home décor, and fine art.
After over ten years on the market, I’m one of the most recognizable and experienced professional teachers in my field. My classes are in great demand, and I continuously strive to deliver the best possible experience and quality to my students. Being able to say that I successfully turned my passion into a full-time job is an incredible feeling.
My mission? To continue this magical, artistic journey, and guide, teach and encourage as many creative souls as I can on their path of self-discovery.
Art is always the Answer.
