POWERTEXCREATIONS

She received formal art training during 4 years at the Art Academy in Eeklo (Belgium), has studied with nationally known watercolor artists and continues to do so because she sees learning as a life long process. After the passing of her husband, Regine did not pursue her art career, until she moved to Florida with her daughters 3 years ago. She took up watercolor again and became a Terry Madden Certified Teacher.

During the summer of 2007, she came in contact with Brigitte Grade, a wonderful Belgian Artist, creator of Powertex, and the trendsetter in the development of new techniques with textile hardening products. Regine enjoys experimenting with various techniques and signed up for several workshops in Belgium, together with her daughter Valerie. The discovery of Powertex changed their world.

Regine received her certification as a Powertex instructor and is importing the Powertex products in the United States. The success of Powertex is overwhelming in both Europe and Australia. For this reason she is looking for business partners all over the US to join the success of Powertex. Regine and Valerie are looking forward to introduce you to the fascinating world of Powertex.

WORKHOP: SITTING LADY

We teach you step by step how to create an elegant figurine by using electricity wire, aluminum foil, masking tape, to finish by dressing it up using the Powertex. ** You can choose between Powertex Lead, Bronze or Terra Cotta. Powertex is a water based fabric hardener, an environmentally friendly alternative for polyester. To learn more about the product, please visit www.powertexcreations.com

students need to bring:

  • 100% cotton t shirt

  • Plastic container (like empty yogurt container 1 liter)
  • Pedestal is to make a nice display at home (the lady needs something to sit on could be wood, metal, plati, rock, plaster...get creative!)
