 Class synopsis:\nWhat is Encaustic Painting? The word “Encaustic” is a
  Greek word meaning “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of 
 natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and r
 esin is melted\, pigment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous 
 surface with brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse
  it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, 
 spontaneous medium. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, la
 yered in opaque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, scu
 lpted\, polished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create colla
 ge works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes 
 from a liquid to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additi
 onal layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics
  in Encaustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a 
 safe working temperature\, tools required and safety precautions to get yo
 u started. Experiment with different materials to create two 8 x 8 collage
