Stenciling: a modern twist on traditional design By Brenda Burke T -A Reporter HENSALL - Imagine a stenciled scene on a wall in your home. Now add muted colors, gradual shading and minute detail. "This type of stenciling is so dif- ferent from what people think sten- ciling is," claims Jackie Schutz, a Hensall resident who expanded her White Linen Interiors 'design busi- ness last year to include mural sten- ciling. "You get more of a painted pic- ture instead of a straight line," she explained. "it's got character...I'm trying to get away from the sten- ciled look." A multiple -sheet stenciling tech- nique produces depth in this fin- ished art form. Before she became a self-taught stencilist, Schutz was in- spired by an interior designer in Cambridge to give traditional sten- ciling a try. Since then, she has dis- covered the potential of murals. With decorating trends returning to European -inspired textured. walls and muted colors, Schutz finds "people want something different" from basic paint and wallpaper methods, and more local residents are becoming aware of stenciled murals as a decorating option. "We are very sheltered (from) different ideas," while living in small communities, she pointed out, adding it'srefreshing to work with new techniques. For six local homes, she has giv- en consultations and created orig- inal murals. Half of her clients have encouraged her to make her own ar- tistic clioices. Because Schutz makes the stencils and varies each project, she appreciates this type of freedom. Murals can he developed on dry- wall, wallpaper or panelling. In the beginning, Schutz would plan out designs before beginning each pro - Cindy Beard, at left, and Jantina Berooets. celebrate the addition of Heart & Soul crafts to.

Brown Administrator Township of Stephen ject. Now she tends to 'go with the flow,' creating and revising murals produced with oil-based paint. Although she has stenciled mu- rals in a variety of rooms, she es- pecially likes to work with those of children. After completing her first children's mural, which includes a white picket fence surrounded by flowers, cats, birds, butterflies and clouds, she discovered a desire to expand in this area, feeling it's im- portant for kids to be surrounded by a fun space. For her May 31 open house, which coincides with the annual Hensall Community Yard Sale, Schutz will create murals in three rooms of her King Street home. It takes her an estimated four- hours to complete a large -$250 border and 12 hours to finish a $450 full bed- room mural. Schutz, who has taught stenciling classes in Shakespeare, will offer home-based .lessons this fall. Four months ago, she began training' Laura Dopp, of Hensall, in the mu- ral technique. "Not everybody can do this..; It's so nice to get paid for something you love to do," said Schutz, laugh- ing at the memory of her past sec- retarial work in Toronto. "It felt right when I did (stenciling)." Gaiser Kneale 235-2420, 2384484 * GIC rates subject 10 change. Start term rates available. Segregated Mods rates reflect actual past perfon.ance.
