InTRO TO ENCAUSTIC & COLLAGE
Sunday, July 7, 2024
from 10 am - 4 pm. $235
Location: Portland, OR
All levels
Encaustic is one of the oldest forms of painting, with paint made from pure pigment mixed with wax and resin. The mixture is applied hot, then reheated to fuse the layers together.
No painting or drawing experience is necessary for this encaustic class. You can collage with wax instead of glue to incorporate thin papers, and pastels once you get used to working with the wax.
We will use techniques involving collage, painting, and layering using wax in an assortment of vivid colors. You'll learn how to lay down the wax without air bubbles and get a smooth finish.
Don't worry if you haven't tried anything like this before, the medium is very forgiving. I'll have lots of collage materials available for you to work with or you can just create by using the beautiful wax paint. If you have favorite rubber stamps, feel free to bring them and I'll show you some fun ways to use them with the wax!
All supplies for this workshop will be provided for you. Don't worry if you haven't tried anything like this before, the medium is very forgiving and I'll have lots of materials available for you to work with.
