Encaustic (wax) painting is a relatively simple process that produces highly impressive results. In Encasutic Workshop, you will be introduced to encaustic painting, the tools and supplies needed and more than 25 step-by-step techniques for delving into this layered medium. Techniques include adding pigments to color the wax, layering in papers and fibers, adding foils, photos and carving, as well as other non-traditional techniques such as carved stamps, alcohol inks and rub-ons. Complete projects show you in a step-by-step format how to combine the techniques to create a more complex finished piece and a bonus gallery offers additional inspiration.
