 .00\n\n\nWhat is Encaustic Painting? The word “Encaustic” is a Greek w
 ord 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 t
 he previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontane
 ous 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 collage works
 . Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a l
 iquid to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional lay
 ers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Enca
 ustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe wor
 king temperature\, tools required and safety precautions to get you starte
 d. Experiment with different materials to create an 8 x 8 collage.\n\n\nLe
