Curious about encaustic painting? Come experience the fascinating world of painting with wax!
In this fun, hands-on introductory class, you’ll get a taste of encaustic art and discover why this ancient medium is so exciting to work with. We’ll explore the basics of working with melted beeswax and heat while experimenting with layers, texture, color, and collage.
I’ll demonstrate some of my favorite techniques and then give you the opportunity to play, experiment, and create your own small encaustic piece to take home.
No encaustic experience is necessary. This is a teaser class—designed to introduce you to the medium without overwhelming you with rules or complicated techniques.
Come ready to experiment, get a little messy, and have fun!

Please note: Encaustic involves hot wax and heat tools. Safety procedures will be demonstrated and followed throughout the class.
