Explore encaustic painting in this one day workshop. This process combines pigment, beeswax and dammar resin to harden the paint and give it shine. Demonstrations will include melting and fusing, creating layered patterns with unique rubber stencils, embedding paper, and leaf imprints.

  • Please note: Due to a small set of stairs, this is the only studio in our facility that is not handicap accessible. Classes are confirmed one week prior to the start date. In order to help us confirm classes, please register as early as possible.
  • Instructor will provide small 4x6 inch panels for trying encaustic techniques.
