Unlock the magic of encaustic painting in Wax & Wonder, a dynamic four-week course where color, composition, and mixed media techniques come alive through layers of molten wax. Whether you’re new to encaustic or looking to deepen your practice, this class will guide you through innovative ways to blend pigment, texture, and collage into striking, multi-dimensional artworks.

What You’ll Explore:

• Week 1: The Alchemy of Color – Learn how to mix and layer encaustic pigments for depth, luminosity, and impact. Experiment with blending techniques that create harmony and contrast in your compositions.

• Week 2: Layering & Texture – Discover how to build rich, tactile surfaces using wax as both a sculptural and painting medium. Explore scraping, incising, and mark-making to add depth to your work.

• Week 3: Mixed Media & Collage – Fuse fabric, paper, and found materials into your encaustic pieces, transforming simple elements into evocative narratives.

• Week 4: Composition & Refinement – Learn the principles of strong composition and how to balance color, texture, and form. Finish your final pieces with expert tips on polishing and preserving encaustic art.
