Explore encaustic painting in this beginner-friendly class! You'll work with melted beeswax medium and colorful pigments to learn essential techniques like layering, fusing, tinting, and embedding. Whether you're drawn to texture, translucence, or playful experimentation, this hands-on session will guide you in creating your own richly dimensional, one-of-a-kind artwork.
No experience needed—just a sense of curiosity and a willingness to play with heat, wax, and color. Come explore the possibilities!
