No art experience is needed for this fun, one-day wax monoprints workshop! Simply bring your open mind and imagination!
Explore the medium of wax, as we draw with crayons on a hotplate and imprint the image onto rice paper. Using oil pastel crayons, encaustic wax and pigment sticks, create a series of encaustic monoprints on rice paper, using a hotplate. Additional mark making tools used include graphite pencils, India ink and alcohol ink. The printing plates range in size from 4x6 to 8x10 inches and you will have the opportunity to use different sizes for different effects. Learn how to either mat your work for framing or mount it on a rigid surface using adhesive.
All supplies, which average $30 per person, will be provided and included in the cost of the workshop. Receive two finished matted paintings and one painting mounted on a 2" cradled panel up to size 8x8". You will also have many pages of wax monoprints that you can use in collage, art journaling, notecard making; the uses are endless!
