Drip, Drag, Scrape: Introduction to Encaustic Painting with Helene Farrar
March 11 – 14, 2023 | Saturday – Tuesday
Saturday: 10 am – 5 pm | Sun, Mon, Tues: 9 am – 4 pm
Drip, pour, drag, layer, heat, and incise! This extended workshop will allow participants to dip deep into the medium to develop their own voice. Encaustic is an evocative medium that lends itself into varying approaches and topics. Investigate the art of encaustic painting in this very hands-on workshop using pigmented wax, and a heated palette! Explore a rich variety of marks and surfaces while doing image transfer, etching, and collaging in this seductive medium. Take your flat collections of drawings, collected papers, pictures, and incorporate found objects. Class time will be divided between demonstrations, individual work time, and discussion about historical and contemporary practices. We will also touch on proper studio ventilation, wax safety, and how to “finish” artworks in terms of framing and care. Students will leave with multiple finished pieces and the understanding of proper studio set-up.
All Levels of experience are welcome!
$150 additional fee paid to the instructor purchases all materials necessary for this workshop.
