Wax Weekend: Luminous Landscapes
March 30-31, Sat-Sun, 10-4 pm, $385 (2 spots left)
Location: Portland, Oregon
In this 2-day class we'll focus on creating Luminous Landscapes pairing encaustic paint with a wide variety of materials. We'll use whatever media we need to create your vision, and working in small groups in my studio makes that possible. We might use pastels, graphite, ink, wax crayons or pigment sticks to achieve a certain look, so we'll discuss whatever methods and media that make sense for your painting.
Students will be asked to bring a couple of reference photos for inspiration, just to give you a starting point. Realism isn't our goal, it's more to convey a sense of place.
All of my Wax Weekend workshops are easily accessible for someone with little or no experience in working with encaustic, but will also offer rich, personalized instruction for those who have more experience. I keep my class sizes very small so everyone can learn at their own pace. This allows me to help introduce beginners to this new medium and still challenge more experienced artists with advanced tips and techniques.
Most supplies will be provided including encaustic medium, encaustic paint, brushes, paper, boards, and basic encaustic tools. Students are asked to bring one additional panel up to 9 x 12". This will allow you to choose the size and configuration that works best for your vision. You will receive detailed information as well as a list of optional items upon registration. Space is limited to 6 students and classes tend to fill very quickly.
