Experience
Through demonstrations, ample hands-on practice, and individualized instruction, learn the history of encaustic painting, studio safety and setup, and a variety of techniques including incising, collage, mixing paint, creating texture, and working with stencils. Integrate other materials with your encaustic work as the week goes on such as oil sticks, pan pastels, and paper. You are encouraged to cultivate your authentic creative voice before, during, and after the workshop through walks in nature, journaling, stargazing, yoga, and meditation - and in whatever ways you fuel your creative practice.
