Private Workshops:

These one-on-one sessions are designed to give an overview of the medium, safety requirements, and the many versatile uses of the medium ,and is comprehensive enough to start you exploring on your own the multitude of possibilities inherent in this exciting medium. All materials are furnished. The one day gives the basics in encaustics with no hands on working time and the two-day will cover all of the above plus working time to experience the wax. The cost of a one-day private class is $350, which includes at least 6 hours of instruction and all materials.
