Deb Jellenik won’t be bringing her wallpaper printer to the annual artists’ show at Sickels Market this weekend.
It’s about the size of a compact car, for one thing. And it’s parked in the basement of her Red Bank home.
More than that, though, is the fact that hitting “print” on a custom wallpaper project is among the final steps in a process that requires a painstaking combination of art and craft – not to mention a dash of crazy.
