"I came from Montana to take an encaustic workshop with Kelly. I felt welcomed and at ease as soon as I walked through the door at her beautiful studio. I can recommend without hesitation a session with her. It was kept to a small number of students and tailored to each individual, so every minute I felt I was learning at my skill level. Kelly's teaching style is upbeat, fun, inclusive, and encouraging. I felt like I was taking a class from a friend. She is very open with her knowledge and is excited to see what we'll create. Hopefully I'll be able to take another workshop with her in the future!"

“As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I have to make sure to incorporate self-care into my life. Otherwise, I would burn out quickly. Encaustic (hot wax) painting has become one of my favorite therapeutic activities. Painting allows for mindfulness to occur, which leads to contentment.”

“I enjoyed a relaxing and fun afternoon in Kelly’s beautiful new encaustic studio space. She was open and flexible regarding the varying needs and interests of the class. She knew I was particularly interested in figurative work and made sure to address some specific new techniques for me to practice. I particularly liked the demos. The 3 hours flew by under her knowledgeable guidance.”
