In the Art Studio. Lynda is a professional artist whose painting have been shown locally and nationally. Her work is included in The Art of Encaustic Painting by Joanne Mattera.  Encaustic painting is a simple process that produces impressive results with luminous and jewel-like surfaces and textures. Heated wax can be fused and melted to create  layers for collage of fabric, paper, and organic materials. The surfaces can be rough and sculptural or smooth and bright. It is ideal for  working abstractly or more realistically. Contact me for  questions and the material list which I can email or snail mail to you.

Encaustic or hot wax painting is a simple process that produces impressive results with luminous and jewel-like surfaces and textures.  It is made up of molten beeswax, pigment and dammar resin. It can be smooth and shiny, textured and three dimensional all on the same painting. Participants will explore melting and fusing, intarsia (line and edge), transfers, accordion book making, texture, collage, scraping and incising. Join us in learning this once ancient process, now updated with new tools and equipment.

Beginners

Encaustic painting is a simple process that produces impressive results with luminous and jewel-like surfaces and textures. Heated wax can be fused and melted to create luscious layers for collage of paper, fabric and dried organic materials. The surfaces can be rough and sculptural or smooth and shiny. It is ideal for scribing with lines, working abstractly or in a more representational style. This is a solvent free medium. You will learn the essentials to get started. The material list will be mailed or is available on our website. Enrollment limited to 6 students.
