More About Encaustic Painting: Working Larger
A four day encaustic workshop:
May 11-14, 2015


This four day workshop in my quiet light filled encaustic studio, with views of the mountains,  is the perfect opportunity to take four days for yourself, and focus on your work, to take your work  to the next level. Whether you are new to encaustic, or more experienced, we will consider where you are coming from, and even more importantly, where you want to go with your work...what you want to achieve. You can work on paintings up to 24” in any direction, and think about putting them together to create even larger work. In addition, a variety of new techniques will be introduced.

For beginning encaustic painters, you will get a complete grounding in all the basics, and enough time and opportunity to really explore the medium's potential.For those with more experience, you can go beyond where you are at to even more exciting possibilities.
