Learn how to combine encaustic and photo images and fuse photography with the luminous, tactile medium of hot wax to create layered, archival, visually rich mixed-media works.

In this hands-on 2.5 hour workshop, you will learn :

• How to embed and transfer photographic images into encaustic.

• How to build depth with luminous layers.

• How to create compositions using images and abstract texture.

• Learn safe studio practices for working with heat and pigments, as well as troubleshooting common issues like adhesion.

• Make your own holiday gifts!

  By the end of this Encaustic and Photos Workshop, you will have completed unique encaustic-photo pieces and will have learned creative ways to continue developing your own encaustic art.
