This workshop will explore Reverse Stenciling techniques and Silkscreen Application for Decorative Faux-Painted Surfaces and Fabrics. Class instruction is by Lucretia Moroni, host of the International Salon in Bergamo, Italy.

This unusual technique, was taught to Lucretia by Mongiardino Master decorative painters, which she is happy to share. Suitable for extremely detailed wood inlaid works. This is a subtractive technique: starting with a pigment-coated surface, a pattern is developed by removing areas exposed through stencil, achieving various color shades. Appropriate for works on wood and paper grounds. This technique's application to marblizing using a stencil will also be shown.
