An Introduction to Encaustics workshop – with Margot Hartford

June 23 @ 11:00 am - 4:00 pm

$124 – $155

A great introduction or refresher in using warm wax as a painting medium

Sunday June 23, 11:00 am – 4:00 pm

This hands-on, one-day encaustic basics workshop is a great introduction if you have never worked with encaustic wax or if you need a refresher in using warm wax as a painting medium.

The workshop will examine approaches to using paper, botanicals, and 3-D objects that can be embedded into the wax for an encaustic collage. We will address heating, fusing, and manipulating wax, as well as discuss colors, brushes, and where to find materials.

The encaustic wax and all other encaustic supplies will be provided. Students are encouraged to bring their own additional materials to incorporate into their artwork. Each student will leave with at least two completed pieces of encaustic art.

 


$155 | $124 for OHCA members
plus $20 materials fee to instructor day of class.

Max 8 students
Register by June 22.
