MAKE IT BIG! Working Large
$250
6 Hours
Going BIG with your art has great advantages. As a serious artist working on a larger scale gives you credibility. As the gallery biz saying goes "Big art helps sell the small art." This advanced workshop is designed for those who already have some background using the encaustic wax process such as wax artists and previous workshop participants. Creating BIG art has greater challenges that can lead to expensive mistakes. In six hours professional encaustic artist, Angel Wynn, will show you what's taken her 8 years to learn while creating BIG art. The process when working large is quite differently than any other workshop. Such as the glue method, layout procedure, wood panel suppliers, hanging hardware, necessary tools and supplies. Large scale art has financial rewards too. Angel will discuss her pricing formula, presentation and exhibiting. This workshop only has room for two participants and is not offered often. At the time of booking you will receive a short supply list. A fabulous opportunity to get a quick jump-start on becoming a serious photo-encaustic artist.

PHOTO DECOUPAGE WITH WAX- Printing on Tissue Paper
$175
3 Hours
This workshop is for all levels and will touch on the basics of the encaustic painting process. Learn the right way to print images onto tissue paper without jamming a desktop printer. Create dream-like art pieces by overlapping photographs that dissolve into one another. Or create backgrounds using exotic papers and wax pigments so when a tissue printed image melts into the wax it allows the bottom layer to bleed through, giving it mystery. The tissue paper disappears as the molten wax permeates it's fibers leaving the image against the created background. We will also explore utilizing other elements, textures and mark making as a final step to achieve a painterly look and contemporary art. Bring your own photos or choose from a selection on-hand. All materials and supplies included, even the tissue prints. This workshop has space for 1-3 participants at a time.
