SPOKANE ART SUPPLY

Hot wax with personality  

We will work with adding some spark and your personality to your work.
Try something new, we can use color to the fullest, pound some nails or just keep it simple.  I will show you some fun ways to show off who you are.

DARIS JUDD
SPOKANE ART SUPPLY  on Monroe
OCT 8TH 10:30AM TO 4:30PM with a lunch break
COST $65. Including most materials and tools.

You bring wood substrates and photo copies ( not ink jet ) of images and a few thin hand made papers you love .

Encaustic is the art of painting with hot beeswax mixed with pigments and resin.  The wax gives off a wonderful smell and a translucency like nothing else.
This class is good for the experienced and beginner.

Some of the things that will be covered are,
Types of wax and the ready made supplies out there.
We will use Enkaustikos wax.
Safety and ventilation concerns.
Collage, masking, transfers, incising, scraping.
Surface texture and found objects.
What substrates are best and simple ways to display.
Using oil paints or pigment oil sticks.
I will demo both uses of the heat gun and the propane torch.

The substrates you bring can be found at Spokane Art Supply and Creative Element.
They also have other Encaustic supplies you might like.
One substrate is from Ampersand with a white encaustic finish on it.
Any unfinished small flat board, any size will work for sample pieces and larger for a finished piece.
If you stay uniform in size you could display later in a grouping.
