Here is how we end the workshops

After the end of all workshops, we stop for a glass of wine and discussion of the class. Yesterday was the 91st class I have given. I keep adding more and more techniques to the advanced workshops. It is my pleasure to share all that I know.

Advanced and private classes

Janice is an accomplished artist with recent show in the museum in Florence Italy

 

Lori had a private class and used almost every technique possible in encaustic

Lori's first creation: photo printed on rice paper, transfers, India ink, incised lines, raised lines with the hot pen, charcoal, wax pencil, oil glazes, burnt shellac. No wonder she was full of ideas how add new techniques to her work when she gets back to her own studio.

New format for the encasutic workshops

I am now offering 3 day intensive workshops that include transportation from town to my home/studio/gallery that is a 15 minute drive  into the country.

Of course, the 2 day workshops are still happening. The 3 days is for you artists who just are not ready to stop after the first 2 day of fun and creativity.

This is a relaxing event that closes on the third day with wine and critiques.

The dates are posted. I am considering weekend classes for those of you who work during the week. What do you think?

Here is the intro to my online classes. https://vimeo.com/72963451

Check it out as well as all the various technique that I share for those who can not come to a class in my studio.

New Studio, new workshop schedule

I have a new studio with room for more students. Lots of space and light with everything you need to create amazing encaustic painting. I have hundreds of examples of what can be developed in encaustic from simple marbleizing, carving, collage, photos , transfers, carving, painting figuratively and more.

I am an award winning artist and have exhibited my work Internationally. My classes are longer that others offered and I will pick you up and bring you to my beautiful studio/home/gallery for an afternoon in the campo, experiencing an artistic adventure and leaving with completed paintings.

Encaustic is an expensive medium, but I supply everything. All you need to bring is a snack or lunch. I have had advanced artists in my classes and others who have never had a brush in their hands.

April, Introduction to encaustic

Sharyn

Can you believe that these 2 participants never worked in encaustic before? It is amazing what they accomplished in just 2 days. The first day we concentrated on learning to handle the torch and what would happen  "if"... Day 2 we ventured into a couple of more techniques. We had lots of laughs and got to know each other. These workshop are not just about learning encaustic; it really becomes a sharing experience.
