See Art from the Outside—Look Out from the Inside!
Discover the magic of painted screens—functional works of art inspired by a beloved Baltimore folk tradition. In this hands-on workshop led by artist Clare Chesnavage, you'll transform a simple window or door screen into a vibrant one-way viewable painting. Using just a small amount of water-soluble paint, you’ll create an image visible from the outside, while preserving a clear view and airflow from the inside.
We’ll introduce a red-roofed cottage scene as a starting point, but your screen is your canvas—feel free to follow your own inspiration. Add trees, mountains, wildlife, or paint something entirely different. The process is simple, but the results are magical, especially when viewed from outdoors in natural light.
Whether you're drawn to the art, the illusion, the eco-friendliness of this craft, or the tradition, this is a perfect blend of creativity and craft.
