Introduction to encausic painting

I stopped teaching the introduction to encaustic painting a few years ago and concentrated on teaching advanced encaustic techniques. I have been encouraged by previous students to include the basics once again.

This class is for 3 or 4 people who want to experience the exciting technique of painting with hot wax, resin and pigment. No artistic training is necessary, but accomplished artists can expand their creativity. It is for those who want to experience the exciting technique of painting with hot wax, resin and pigment

After the 2 day class you will have 4 to 6 finished paintings, ready for framing. Many of the participants in these workshops have sold everything they made in class.

I supply all materials. You need only to come with a sense of adventure, and be ready to let the encaustic take you to another level of artistic awareness.
The cost of the 2 days with all materials, tools, gas torches, stamps,
papers, etc is $250 U.S. plus $40 material fee.


Here are some photos of happy participants in the beginning workshops.
