Additionally, have you ever felt the need to slow down, clear your head, and just… create with Finnabair?
Finnabair’s “Colours of the Past” is your invitation. Additionally, it offers a relaxing, intuitive journey into dimensional collage. Texture, colour, pattern, and negative space come together in one expressive, layered composition.
Moreover, this project goes beyond a flat canvas.

You’ll create a multi-level artwork, starting with a long base canvas.
Moreover, it builds two additional dimensional layers: a round element and a smaller focal piece.
Finnabair demonstrates how these parts are created separately and assembled into one cohesive design.
Additionally, We’ll combine a clean, light background with rich textures, vintage elements, and your favourite colours.
Prefer something soft and nostalgic?
Additionally, feel like going bold and vibrant?
Moreover, even better.
This class gives you full freedom to balance vintage aesthetics with expressive colour. Additionally, it creates a piece that truly reflects your personal style.

Here’s what to expect
Moreover, as we work through the Finnabair project together, you’ll explore:
- building layers using texture pastes, gels, and embellishments
- creating and assembling a multi-level collage structure
- combining clean backgrounds with dimensional elements
- creating harmony between colour, image, and form
- adding expressive details like splatters, drips, and subtle highlights
- finishing your project in a way that feels complete and balanced

This class is based on one of my popular in-person workshops. Additionally, it is refreshed with new ideas, updated techniques, and more flexibility. Thus, you can easily adapt everything to Finnabair materials you already have.

We’ll work with materials from my Art Basics, Art Extravagance, and Art Alchemy lines.
Additionally, these include Heavy Gesso, Gels, Effect Pastes, Liquid Acrylics, Waxes.
Moreover, we use Art Stones, Decoupage Papers, and dimensional elements like mould casts and HDF shapes.
Finnabair products play a key role in building texture, depth, and the project’s overall look.
Additionally, I’ll share alternatives and substitutions so you can adapt the techniques to the materials you have.

If you’re starting your mixed-media journey or seeking fresh inspiration, this class guides you through the process step by step.
Additionally, Finnabair-inspired ideas leave room for your own creative decisions, experiments, and personal touches.
As always, I’ll be creating a brand-new project live with you.
Additionally, you’ll see every important step, decision, and creative nuance in real time, Finnabair.

And if you’ve taken one of my classes before — you already know the vibe.
Additionally, Finnabair fans can enjoy it all from the comfort of their own home.
It includes lifetime access to the recordings and resources, so you can revisit and recreate the project whenever you like.
Originally, Finnabair offered this class with two live sessions.
Additionally, both sessions have been recorded, so you can watch — and re-watch — anytime with lifetime access.
Additionally, check the PDF supply list for all materials you might need to create the collage with me, Finnabair.
This is your space to slow down, explore, and enjoy the process — one layer at a time. Additionally, take what inspires you, make it your own, and let the project grow naturally as you work.
Additionally, I hope to see you in the classroom!

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.
