Jenny Paulk Workshop January 14-15th


Jenny Paulk Presents

“Encaustic and Crayons”
January 14th & 15th 2012

at the Cheyenne Artists Guild
_________

$80 for Guild members 
and $100 for non-members

This workshop can be for the beginner or advanced painter who is interested in learning the fun and different ways of painting a canvas using melted crayons, and a method called Encaustic painting, which is painting with wax. 
We will begin with discussion of Encaustic painting, its history, and the different techniques. To get warmed up, we will begin painting our canvas using acrylic paint, glue crayons on top of the painting, and then use hair dryers to melt the crayons.  Sunday, we will use a second canvas for the encaustic paintings.  Students will be doing a lot of painting in during the 2 days of class using acrylic and wax. 

For questions or to sign up, please contact the Cheyenne Artists Guild at 307-632-2263.
