Introduction to Painting with Encaustic
Saturday 17th @ Sunday 18th January 2027
First used by ancient Egyptians – encaustic painting has been around for centuries. Also known as hot wax painting, it involves using heated beeswax to which coloured pigments are added.
Join me for this two day introduction to painting with encaustic. You will learn how to combine the wax and resin to create your own mix then apply to the board, canvas or paper. We will scratch and mark make with brushes and tools, then use oil paint and pigment to build layers and stories.
Suitable for all levels of experience – this is a great way to explore a new medium.
All materials supplied and a delicious lunch on both days.
