Mixed Media

Students will learn how to use encaustic wax to embellish small wooden houses.  The class employs wax pellets, pigment and heat guns to create melted surfaces which adhere collage materials to wooden house forms. This melted medium provides opportunities for unexpected beauty and freedom of color and form.  Students will take home two completed wax houses. The class is limited to 10 participants to allow for individual attention.  Be prepared to get messy and have fun!  Please bring an apron or wear old clothes.  All supplies are provided for an additional $20, paid to the instructor at the beginning of class.  Students are, however, encouraged to bring favorite papers, collage materials and found objects to personalize their houses.

Join us for Collage + Conversations, a free monthly meetup held every second Tuesday—where glue, laughter, and a little bit of magic come together. Each month, we explore a new paper art or mixed media technique while making space for creativity, connection, and soul-deep joy.
