Cold wax is an oil painting medium that, when mixed with oil paint, adds body and transparency to the paint. It also speeds up the drying time which enables us to layer the paint, add texture and excavate back down through the built up layers. This introductory class will give you an understanding of the oil and cold wax medium with two days of exploration with various tools, textures and techniques. There will be a demo and talk each day then we will jump into playing and creating with oil and cold wax. We will work on Arches oil paper as well as on wood cradle boxes. All of the materials and tools will be supplied – just bring your sense of fun and creativity!
The classes, in my home studio in Merville, are 3-4 people only so the instruction is personal with time for individual mentoring.
Bring a lunch, and an apron, old shirt or wear old clothes.
Studio: 8052 Harmony Cresent, Merville, BC (about 15 minutes north of Courtenay).
