We are starting to get very excited about all the travelling we will be doing next year! Starting in June 2012 and continuing through the end of the year, Rick will be teaching his "Discover Your Inner Artist" series of classes in Canada, London, Pennsylvania (only U.S. class) and Australia. We are pleased to announce that we will be travelling to Ontario, Canada not just once, but twice, next year and have recently added on a 3rd "Discover Your Inner Artist 2" class at
Icing Inspirations, located in Kitchener, Ontario. We had such a great time with our hosts and the students at
Icing Inspirations this past March that Rick accepted an invitation to do a 3rd class there. This time we will return in October, and lucky for us and all of Rick's students, it is also during the week of Oktoberfest (October 7-14, 2012), which is a HUGE party in Kitchener. Kitchener-Waterloo is the home of the largest Oktoberfest celebration outside of Germany (750,000 to 1,000,000 people expected) and
Icing Inspirations is located literally about a block away from the Concordia Club, one of the biggest Oktoberfest party venues. What all of this means is that the October Class 3 students are going to have an opportunity to not only learn Rick's tattoo/lotus and sushi platter designs, but a chance to experience a true Oktoberfest party in style!
In his "Discover Your Inner Artist 2" class, Rick uses the techniques taught in the the first "Discover Your Inner Artist" class and focuses on advanced airbrushing and painting. Students will learn how to make the tattoo/lotus cake start to finish, including airbrushing methods and handcrafting and painting the beautiful lotus flowers. The methods used to shape the unique tiers will also be demonstrated. The sculpted sushi platter is a design that we have offered at cakelava for many years. Rick will demonstrate the making and painting of the sushi platter components. As with all the "Discover Your Inner Artist" classes, enrollment is limited to give each student individualized attention.
Registration for the October class is handled directly through Icing Inspirations. If you are travelling to the class from outside Canada, it is strongly recommended to make your accommodations well in advance due to Oktoberfest. Don't wait to register. The first 2 June classes sold out in 48 hours!
