This workshop is for those who have had some experience with encaustic
painting and who are interested in using texture and patterns to not
only enrich the surface of their work but to build the structure within
the painting. You will have the opportunity to try the
accretion technique using a slightly cooler brush, the heated palette
knife to create stalagmites of wax, a thick stencil to create pattern
and the batik pen for serpentine lines. You will have hardware store
items as well as tools that are usually used for other mediums available
to try out. (Meets in W-7)

July 13 Saturday at The Arts Center at Glen Allen, VA
complete
Encaustic painting is a process that produces impressive results with luminous and jewel-like surfaces and textures. Artists come to encaustic painting from many other mediums which then creates a dynamic and rich experience. Areas covered include: safe studio practices, surface preparation, and resources. Various demonstrations will be scheduled with plenty of time to experiment. Participants will learn techniques such as melting through, line and edge, transfers, texture and collage. Each person can choose to practice all of these methods or just the ones that interest them. At the end of the workshop, artists will be familiar with a range of techniques which they can use in their work. Paint, equipment, tools and small practice panels will be supplied. Bring wood panels up to 9”x12” if you'd like to make larger, more resolved work. An optional materials list will be supplied once you register.

July 6 Saturday workshop at the Visual Arts Center, Richmond, VA
Experience the process of working with the solvent-free, luminous
colors of encaustic in a supportive, experimental and fun atmosphere.
All Levels
complete
Encaustic is a luminous medium that is made up of molten beeswax, pigment and resin. It can be smooth and shiny or textured and three-dimensional all on the same painting. We will explore melting and fusing the wax, making clean lines and edges, texture, and collage. Encaustic is ideal for working abstractly or in a more representational style. You will be given a small wooden panel (4x5”) for each of the techniques demonstrated, and you can bring your own 9x12 inch boards for larger work. The instructor will provide equipment, paint, medium, brushes and tools. No encaustic experience is necessary. For students who have taken encaustic painting in the past this is an opportunity to review processes, delve into an idea more deeply or try something new.
