SUMMARY:Encaustic Painting for Beginners
DESCRIPTION:Instructor - Kris Straukas\n           \n\nWhat is Encaus
 tic 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 resin 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. Enca
 ustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium.\n\nThe wax 
 can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or transl
 ucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or com
 bined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other pa
 ints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a solid 
 state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added i
 mmediately.\n\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic painting.
  Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperatur
 e\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment w
 ith different materials to create an 8 x 8 collage. Bring your lunch and b
 everages. Class will be socially distanced and masks will be required.\n\
