Join us for a three day beginning/intermediate workshop and delve into the
magical world of Encaustic Painting. This is a wonderful
opportunity for beginning and experienced abstract artists to
explore this fabulous 4,000 year old ancient medium in a
contemporary manner. In the past 5 years, interest in this
medium has been growing at an amazing rate. Artists and
collectors are drawn to the magic of the sensuous tactile
surfaces, lustrous depth, sculptural texture, and the smell and
feel of beeswax. Become a pioneer in the modern revival of this
exciting medium! |
