Cold Wax Medium on Encaustic Photographs

Textured Narratives/Layered Reflections

Course Summary

Combine photographs from your cell phone or camera with rich layers of encaustic and cold wax medium to create beautifully layered, matte- and glossy-surfaced paintings that evoke narrative depth, emotion and enriched personal story telling. Learn how to adhere photos to wood, layer them with molten beeswax, and enhance the cooled surface with rich cold wax medium, using techniques like carving, accretion, thinning, dry brushing, mark-making, stencilling, and more.

This 4-part series includes over 90 minutes of video instruction covering the fundamentals of encaustic on photographs, along with a comprehensive guide to using cold wax medium on photos, with or without encaustic.
