Found Objects With Encaustic | Friday, August 22

Description

objet trouvé | Found object art is created from undisguised, but often modified, items or products that are not normally considered materials from which art is made, often because they already have a non-art function.

Join visual artist Candace Law on Friday, August 22 from 10 am to 4 pm for a fun one-day workshop exploring how to use found objects with encaustic to enhance your work in new and unexpected ways.

We’ll review some basic tools and simple mechanical ways to attach different items to flat wood panels. Then we’ll work through a couple of small projects as we incorporate found objects into our work. As always, you’ll have ample time for independent work with one-on-one assistance. No experience is needed for this workshop, and newcomers to encaustic are welcome.

The equipment, supplies, and some materials needed for this class are provided. However, you will want to bring a few of your own found objects, various small items, papers to collage or ephemera to incorporate into your artwork.

This workshop is not offered very often and space is limited, so grab this opportunity while you can. And sign up early to get the early-bird price! The cost is just $145 until August 15 or $175 for later registrations.
