Curious about encaustic? This workshop covers the basics of this wax-based paint and introduces you to myriad of techniques to explore - image transfer, incising, glazing, building and removing layers, and more. We will work on panels and watercolor paper on Day 1 and on Day 2 we will turn down the heat and make encaustic monotypes, using the hot palette as our printing plate. November is the perfect time to discover this warm and incredibly forgiving paint medium.
Appropriate for all experience levels.
