Art as Therapy with April Westenberg
Discover a technique that turns ordinary canvas into something that looks hand-stitched. Lace painting uses real lace as a stencil — pressing paint through its delicate holes and edges to transfer intricate patterns onto canvas, creating layered, textured designs that mimic embroidery and antique textiles.
In this class, you’ll learn to:
• Select and prepare lace remnants for stenciling
• Layer acrylic paint through lace to build depth and texture
• Mix color palettes that give a soft, vintage feel
• Combine multiple lace patterns for a richer composition
• Seal and finish your canvas for a gallery-ready piece
No prior painting experience needed — just patience and an eye for detail. By the end, you’ll leave with your own finished lace-painted canvas and the skills to recreate the technique at home.
This class is suitable for all ages and designed for a calming effect. Reminder this is considered Art as Therapy.
