 .\nClass synopsis:\nWhat is Encaustic Painting? The word “Encaustic” i
 s a Greek word meaning “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made 
 of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax an
 d resin is melted\, pigment can be added\, and applied in layers to a poro
 us surface with brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to f
 use it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile
 \, spontaneous medium. They can be re-melted to create different effects\,
  layered in opaque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, 
 sculpted\, polished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create co
 llage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it go
 es from a liquid to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing add
 itional layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the bas
 ics in Encaustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within
  a safe working temperature\, tools required and safety precautions to get
  you started. Experiment with different materials to create two 8 x 8 coll
 ages.\nBio: Kris Straukas\nMaterials List:\nAll materials provided.\nBring
