  1. A very Happy New Year 2016 !

    It has been a very busy start to the year with a new studio space to paint and organise, which will enable me to now run larger group workshops, in the meantime whilst I am preparing my new studio I am still taking bookings for one on one workshops - if you would like to book an Encaustic Workshop please email [email protected] or telephone - 07714196584.

    This year I am hoping to concentrate of more workshops including Encaustic Mixed Media using Organic Materials, Atmospheric Lanscapes in Encaustic, Seascapes in Encaustic and some new and exciting Encaustic Mono-Printing/Photo-Encaustic Workshops.  All these classes are suitable for beginners, artists, teachers and photographers.

    Encaustic painting is becoming increasingly popular with artist today the medium has fasicinating possiblities, come and be inspired and learn how to use hot molten wax with pigments and mixed media, you will not be disappointed.

  4. I thought I would share this lovely testimonial received yesterday -  "I have come away from this intensive workshop with everything I wanted from it.

    i.e. to work with a professional artist with years of experience in this medium ( a rare find in the UK)

          the confidence to easily set up a basic studio ( I was a bit daunted at the prospect),.

          the hands on experimence to learn the essential techniques to produce a professional piece of work ( I may have given up if I had been left to my own devices)

          lots of techniques to practise and develop (wow can't wait!)

     

    Dawn is such a lovely person, so open and very generous in sharing her knowledge.  She is an excellent teacher and very patient!.

    I am so excited by this medium and the more Dawn and I talked the more I began to understand the huge potential is has.  I feel my work is on the brink of entering fresh and exciting new territory.  Thank you so much Dawn for all your help and inspiration.

     

    And thank you very much Sheila for taking the time to write to me, I can't wait to see how Sheila progresses with her work and look forward to showing you some of her paintings once she gets started, good luck Sheila !.
