You’ll be inspired by the beautiful surroundings in Victoria, British Columbia. In this 3-day, nature-inspired workshop, you’ll learn monotype printing techniques using leaves and other natural objects with R&F oil pigment sticks. Create painterly prints using R&F oil pigment sticks and Drawing Oils. You’ll be working on reusable gel printing plates that are easy to use and the images can be added as collage in your encaustic paintings. This method is immediate without a press. We will also inspire you to mix your own paint colors to set the mood in your artworks.

Taking photos as reference material from our inspiring location, you’ll learn the exciting ways to paint with wax! We’ll cover several techniques for collaging and embedding your prints into encaustic, as well as image transfer. We’ll include a variety of techniques such as incising, scraping and adding texture. These combined techniques will allow you to create dynamic nature-based compositions full of depth and translucency. You'll also learn how to use plant material as a stencil to create textured botanical paintings.

NOTE: Hotel accommodation and flights are not included. We can make a recommendation for a hotel near the studio. Feel free to book time before or after the workshop to create your own getaway.
