☘️ Experimental Encaustic Painting Workshop: IRELAND EDITION ☘️
DATES: NOVEMBER 9-10, 2024
10:30am-4pm
From Ireland to Oregon—With heartfelt thanks to the Regional Arts and Culture Council for their support in bringing these materials, processes, and ideas home. I look forward to sharing how you can explore innovative ways to impact your own community through the powerful act of art-making.
Join me for this special edition class where I’ll share insights and materials from my Ireland Art Residency, where we will combine the world of encaustic art with these magical elements of Ireland! We’ll explore unique materials like peat ash and holy water from St. Brigid’s well. We will also discuss how location specific particulates can be a powerful ingredient to give voice and highlight issues from local to global-historical, cultural and environmental.
You’ll have the chance to create your own magical artwork using encaustic, carbon-based paints and ink on burnt and dipped paper. I’ll guide you through the process, encouraging creativity and experimentation.
Discover the cultural, historical, and environmental significance of these location-specific materials. I’ll also introduce you to working with alternative materials and mixed media, helping you incorporate meaningful content into your own art.

Encaustic Painting (hot wax, damar resin and pigment) is a unique and addictive process with endless applications and possibilities of expression. Using torches, irons and other fusing methods encaustic paint is layered and fused to create uniquely depthful, luminous surfaces. Multiple base techniques, specialized tools are covered to give the foundation for understanding the specifics and safety of this medium in all encaustic-based workshops.
More advanced and specialized techniques will focus on expanding your skill sets and refining proficiency meeting you where you are in your learning journey. Advanced techniques may include the use and combination of multiple mixed media, mark making, hand pulled prints, stencils/masking/stamping, collage and the use of photography.
Curious how things work together—Let’s experiment!
Beginner to Advanced: All levels are welcome! Classes are tailored to students’ interests and skill levels. We provide basic supplies, but some specialty items may be recommended for students to bring.
