About the Program

Introduction

PaletteArt™ is a proprietary artistic technique developed by Canadian artist and businesswoman Lisa J. Levasseur. Using 100% recycled dried acrylic paint, she creates dimensional, sculptural artworks that transform studio remnants into refined contemporary pieces.

The PaletteArt™ Recycle Program extends this philosophy beyond one studio.

This initiative invites artists, students, art institutions, and creators to responsibly redirect fully dried acrylic paint remnants that would otherwise be discarded.

Collected materials may contribute to future PaletteArt™ works and support an expanding ecosystem rooted in sustainability, responsible studio practices, and environmental awareness.
