In this two-day workshop students will explore cold wax painting incorporating a variety of media, both traditional and nontraditional. Participants will experiment with collage elements and found objects in two-dimensional and bas relief cold wax paintings.
Day one will start with introductions and continue with a brief, fun, group warmup exercise relating to color theory. We’ll continue with demos and discussion on cold wax painting techniques before starting our cold wax paintings with individual guidance; incorporating elements from the morning’s warmup project. Day two will start with a recap of what we’ve learned and complete our cold wax and mixed media projects. Our weekend ends with a friendly and constructive critique.
