Encaustic painting, also known as hot wax painting combining pigment, molten beeswax, and resin. Finished pieces can appear luminous, smooth, shiny, or textured, as well as three-dimensional. This makes the medium ideal for working in both abstract or representational styles. In this class you’ll explore melting and fusing the wax, making clean lines and edges, and methods of collage and texture. The instructor will provide 4x6 wood study panels.  Students will purchase other necessary panels no larger than 9x12". All other equipment and materials are provided.

Encaustic painting produces impressive results with luminous and jewel-like surfaces and textures. Participants will learn techniques such as melting through, line and edge, transfers, texture and leaf impressions. 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 as they develop their body of work. I work alongside of you as you discover the process of this great medium. All paint, equipment, tools and small practice panels will be supplied.
Tuition: $135
Materials: $40, payable to the instructor at the beginning of class.
