Creating with Wall Spackle with Samantha Hallenus
Friday, May 29 *4:00–5:30p
Ready to get a little messy—in the best way?
This class is all about texture, movement, and playful experimentation using an unexpected material: wall spackle.
In Creating with Wall Spackle, students will build a richly textured abstract painting featuring a magnolia set inside the outline of Louisiana or Mississippi.
You’ll layer spackle with acrylic paint using sponge brushes and palette knives (no tiny brushwork here), creating depth and interest in both the background and the magnolia itself.
This class is perfect if you love trying new techniques, enjoy working intuitively, or just want a creative reset that feels fresh and fun.
You’ll leave with a finished 12" x 12" canvas—and the satisfaction of having played with purpose.
Spots are limited—grab one and come make something textured, expressive, and totally your own. 🎨
