Art Underfoot – Painting Canvas Floorcloths
Workshop Fee: $220.00
Each student will paint a 24” X 36” floorcloth using Early American motifs and patterns and top-quality materials under the guidance of professional floorcloth painter, Lisa Curry Mair. No previous painting experience is required. When completed, their floorcloth can be used in a hallway, in front of a kitchen sink or proudly hung on the wall.

1. Checks and Stenciled Branches (easiest)
2. Bowl of Fruit (medium difficulty)
3. Rufus Porter Scene (most difficult)
Materials Fee: $180 Paid at time of workshop. This covers a pre-primed, hemmed 2’ X 3’ heavyweight canvas floorcloth, enough paint for the entire project, brushes, transfer paper, templates and a paper palette.
