ENCAUSTIC and MIXED MEDIA WORKSHOPS
Encaustic Painting (hot wax, damar resin and pigment) is a unique and addictive process with endless applications and possibilities of expression.
Using torches, irons and other fusing methods encaustic paint is layered and fused on wood panels to create uniquely deep, luminous surfaces that can be carved and embellished upon. Multiple base techniques and specialized tools are covered to build the foundation for understanding the specifics and safety of this medium in all encaustic-based workshops.
More advanced and specialized techniques will focus on expanding your skill sets and refining proficiency, meeting you where you are in your learning journey. Advanced techniques may include the use and combination of multiple mixed media, mark making, hand pulled prints, stencils/masking/stamping, collage and the use of photography as time allows.
The weekend workshops are a fast-paced and energetic dive into a variety of techniques and concepts from foundational to more complex approaches. The weekly series runs at a slower pace and allows for students to really dive deeper into topics of their choice with time between to integrate and explore new information.
All levels from beginning to advanced are welcome and addressed. A great class to prepare for the Embodiment or Working Big Workshop. Class size is limited.
Beautiful handmade paints and supplies are provided by R&F Handmade Paints for these workshops.
