R&F Comprehensive Workshop in Glendale California
R&F Handmade Paints Comprehensive Workshops are designed to give participants a thorough knowledge of encaustic and R&F Pigment Sticks®.
This in person workshop with Instructor Caryl St. Ama will begin with an overview of our materials, demonstrating the wide variety of ways our paints are used today. Students are encouraged to bring an open mind and a willingness to experiment with new materials. Caryl will explain studio setup, tools, and health and safety. Students become familiar and comfortable with brushwork, fusing, and layering with encaustic. This class examines specific characteristics that makes wax a unique material to work with including opacity, temperature, adhesion, and texture.
Encaustic is adaptable to other media and artistic processes. Additional techniques we will explore include collage, printmaking, image transfer, and combining oil and wax. After each demonstration, participants have working time to explore each technique at their own pace. There will be ample opportunities to ask the instructor questions on additional topics of interest. Artists working in any print or painting media will find this workshop an exciting opportunity to grow their visual vocabulary.
