SUMMARY:Encaustic Painting for Beginners
DESCRIPTION:Instructor - Kris Straukas\n       \n\nWhat is Encaustic Pa
 inting? The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “to heat or bur
 n in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crys
 tallized 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. Encaustic 
 mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium.\n\nThe wax 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 collage 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 additional layers to be added immedia
 tely.\n\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic painting. Learn
  how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperature\, to
 ols required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment with di
 fferent materials to create an 8 x 8 collage. Bring your lunch and beverag
 es. Studio Sessions will be socially distanced and CDC guidelines will be 
 followed.\n\nDates: June 11\, 2021\n\nTime: 10AM to 3PM - Lunch Break Incl
