Encaustic Wax Painting Workshops by Mary Belle Cordell

Encaustic 2012 – 2013 Classes

Wax painting isn’t as modern as it may appear. In fact, the mummy portraits of Roman Egypt are the earliest examples of encaustic painting known to us. Encaustic wax painting can be painted on canvas, wood panel, plywood, Masonite, paper, Plexiglas, door skins, and over fired ceramics.

The basic formula for encaustic is: melt wax, add pigment, paint, and fuse.
