Luminous Layering of Pattern, Imprints and Colors with Encaustic With Visiting Artist Lynda Ray

3 Day Course  5/31/2022 – 6/2/2022

10:00 AM – 4:00 PM $460

Email natalie@ahhaa.org to be notified when registration opens

A complex web of connections are made through the layering of patterns, colors and marks. The transparent character of encaustic reveals a history of the work’s development and the glass like surface allows many layers to appear at once. This surface can be achieved with the final fused layer. Encaustic can also be very textural which can give the piece a very satisfying visceral experience.

During this workshop students work with a variety of tools, botanical materials, transparent as well as opaque colors and unique rubber stencils. There will be an opportunity to explore lines and dots with a stylus.
Demonstrations will be followed with time to experiment and improvise.
If participants have worked with encaustic before, please bring in some small pieces that you may want to continue to work on. Understanding the properties of encaustic is the first step to incorporating it into your
own work. Participants will emerge with a range of skills to deepen the direction of their work and the confidence to create using the new abilities learned in class.

Thoughts on openings last night.
Page Bond Gallery: www.pagebondgallery.com
Roberto Jamora; An Inventory of Traces.
These are beautiful large works. He says he mines color from memories and it’s intriguing the way he creates a thick layered surface and then appears to scrape shapes in to uncover undulating color.
Angela Franks Wells;Parts and Labor. Copper plate photogravure.
These are rich and beautiful photos from an auto repair shop.
Allison Cooley; Your Nature Somewhere Else.
These are large abstract atmospheric abstract ink blooms where upon closer inspection one is rewarded by experiencing the delicate linear elements
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- -- ----
The Visual Art Center: www.visarts.org
Damien Davis: Color Cargo. Wood and color as subject.
 How we assign value to objects. The Luscher chart is explained as to how pseudo scientific about color choice is used as a psychological test. He has developed a lexicon of shapes over a long time on boxes to carry meaning and importance. This exhibition is packed with many references to explore in more than one visit.
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ----
Reynolds Gallery: www.reynoldsgallery.com
Joan Elliot: Infinity Field
Joan’s new work has integrated more of the landscapes into her geometric patterning. There are layers of architectural details and patterns that overlay images of landscapes in some. They are a beauty one must experience.
Matt Kleberg: Blind Arcade.
His work refers to architecture and mixes it up with organic elements employing intense colors.
Allison Hall: for the white bird.
These are large black appearing paintings that take some time looking at them before you see patterns and shapes emerge.
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- -Shockoe Artspace www.shockoeartspace.com
Frank Phillips: Pentimento
These large paintings are inspired by architecture and process. The construction of which is revealed. These traces remain untouched, revealing the element of time.

The layering process of encaustic painting produces impressive results with luminous surfaces and textures. During this workshop students work with transparent colors, imprinting and casting with botanical materials, stencils and texture. You will explore lines, dots and patterns with the stylus. Demonstrations are followed with time to improvise. Understanding the properties of encaustic is the first step to incorporating it into your own work. Participants will emerge with a range of skills to deepen the direction of their work and the confidence to create using the new abilities learned in class. Open to all skill levels.
