Cynthia Winika Cynthia Winika - Encaustic Painting Comprehensive Derived from the painting of the ancient Greeks, encaustic (a mixture of pigment and beeswax) is one of the most versatile, durable, and luminous painting media. Artists in any media will find it an exciting way to expand their visual vocabulary. This workshop will give students an understanding of sound technique, safe practice, and the many ways to use this medium. Topics include preparation of supports, thermal properties of encaustic, painting, layering, collage, transfer, and mixed-media techniques. All levels.
