Workshop - Introduction to Encaustic Painting

In this hands-on workshop, using a variety of tools, we will explore and experiment with some of the different techniques used in encaustic painting.  Participants will learn how to lay down a foundation, mix colours, create texture, transfer images, embed found objects and much more. Throughout the workshop there will be demonstrations as well as discussions on health and safety practices, equipment and tools, and support options.

We will start the day off by tapping into our creativity and inner artists through a guided meditation.

        Location:  Thunder Bay, ON

Cost: $ 148.00 

No experience required.  Price of workshop includes all supplies, materials, tools and equipment, plus two 12x12 wood panels. Participants may also bring additional unprimed, wood supports - max size 12x12.

Participants are required to bring lunch and an old apron (or wear appropriate clothing). Please arrive 10-15 minutes prior to the start of the workshop.

I want to shed more and more of the weight of my own fears and doubts, and not just get comfortable carrying the heavy things.  I want to pour out, instead of just constantly taking in. I want to keep creating, because I’ve been given another day, and the hands to make things.

Heart Nebula - 4′ x 3′ - by deanna hutton

It’s wonderful to be back in the studio... painted this beauty on May 25th... my largest encaustic painting yet... worked for 7 hours straight... bare feet, windows open... heating, scraping, a shellac burn, building it up layer by layer... my legs were definitely sore the next day  :)

At the end of the day it’s not about what you have or even what you’ve accomplished…It’s about who you’ve lifted up, who you’ve made better. It’s about what you’ve given back.
