Hi Terry,
Great hel from Mad. You can get this at local diy stores like Home Depot or Lowes.
This Goboard i s what we used in the shower under the tile. It is water proof, and you can cover over it with paint etc.
You need a vapor barrier of plastic first then I would put green board on the walls
They do make drywall for bathrooms that doesn't mold. I would try this idea first.
