Wax Poetic – text and detail in encaustic – mini-workshop with Maggie Doswell – Thursday May 10 – $37.50
wax poetic with text and inclusions
May 10 – wax poetic – add text and fine details to encaustic
Let text and fine detail emerge in your encaustic work during this ½ day mini workshop that will focus on the techniques you need. Maggie will lead you through an afternoon of interesting demos with a variety of tools and approaches. You will have an opportunity to experiment with the techniques and add practice pieces to your sketchbook. While working with wax can often result in thick richly textured surfaces, spot color and fine detail can make your work more personal and unique. Combined with text, this will add an interesting dimension to encaustic work.
Bring all your own pigments, waxes and interesting natural material papers. We will supply some paper samples and the equipment.
Thursday May 10 1 – 3:30

This exploratory workshop will generate new textures for you to use to bring your work to more purposeful resolution. Techniques will include scratching, inclusions, ironing, cuts and cut-outs, insets, and heat tools.

Good karma invites more art-making this spring! Join us for one or more in our encaustic mini workshop series.
encaustic on silk gampi
- April 12 – encaustic with paper
Immerse yourself in the fragrance of beeswax and vivid color during this ½ day mini workshop that will focus on use of paper.
Maggie will lead you through an afternoon of interesting demos with a variety of papers. You will have an opportunity to practice the techniques and to add samples to your sketchbook. While working with wax can often result in thick richly textured surfaces, working on paper can also result in a light watercolor type effect. This adds an interesting dimension to encaustic work as pieces can be framed just like other paper work, or can be added to other work already in progress.
Bring all your own pigments, waxes and interesting natural material papers. We will supply some paper samples and the equipment.
