Encaustic Conference DAY 1

Here are some images from this mornings workshops. This was the basic encaustic workshop. She provided alot of useful tips and gave the basics of working with the medium. Below see the gridle with wax, some examples like using a stencil to put letters in your piece. I will have to go back and add the names of the workshop presenters later.

The second demo that I saw today was all about working with fibers in wax. She even used those little round makeup pads. By the way these are not art but demo canvas just showing how to attach the fiber with wax and options. You may see below sleeves of garments or tips of socks etc.
