Encaustic Workshop

Join me for my redesigned one day workshop for artists from beginners to advanced who are working with encaustic paint. The class is designed to take you from the point where your currently are with your work and help you evolve both technique and aesthetic to the next level.

What is covered in the class? Depending on where you currently are with your painting practice, I will help you evolve your work.

If you are a beginning we will cover basics for beginning painters that include: mixing and applying encaustic paint, fusing methods, substrate choices, surface treatments, learning how to make a stable painting, and understanding safe working practices.

If you are an intermediate or advanced painter, we will cover:

• complex color mixing

• working with translucent color and opaque layers

• learning how to develop a smooth surface

• advanced fusing techniques

• mixing oil and wax

• substrates both traditional and experimental

• talking about ideas around your work
