Led by Upwards owner, Amelia, this workshop focuses on a different final stage of an encaustic masterpiece: finishing with oil and cold wax medium. Participants will explore how to seamlessly integrate these mediums into their encaustic pieces, creating depth, texture, and luminosity that captivate the eye. Through guided demonstrations and personalized instruction, attendees will gain practical skills and artistic insights, including layering techniques, colour blending, and surface manipulation. As an experienced encaustic artist, this workshop offers invaluable techniques to enhance your creative journey. Join us and elevate your encaustic paintings from raw potential to stunning works of art with the transformative power of oil and cold wax finishes. This workshop is for those with some experience with encaustic painting. The ins and outs of encaustic painting will not be taught.
