Painting on Wallpaper – A Mixed Media Adventure Friday, May 1, 2026 | 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM Ocean County Artists Guild
$45.00/person
Discover the beauty of painting on unexpected surfaces in this playful mixed-media workshop with Leona Lavone – “Artsy Art Bucket.”
Instead of traditional watercolor paper or canvas, students will create a unique painting on decorative wallpaper. The subtle patterns and textures of wallpaper provide an inspiring background that adds depth, interest, and spontaneity to your artwork.
Using acrylic paint, collage elements, and drawing materials, we will explore layering techniques that allow the wallpaper design to peek through the painting. Students can create florals, abstract designs, whimsical imagery, or anything that inspires them.
This workshop is perfect for artists who enjoy experimenting with and discovering new ways to combine paint and mixed media.
No experience necessary—just come ready to play and explore!
