Daniella Woolf Encaustic Workshop

Here are some more images of sampler panels I made during the workshop to document each of the techniques Daniella showed us.

 

 

 

It was a great workshop. I learned lots and Daniella is an excellent instructor.

Encaustic Workshop Day 2

On day 2, while waiting for Daniella Woolf's next batch of demos, I continued to add  and scrape back layers of clear and pigmented wax on my Day 1 panels.

 

Daniella is an experienced teacher and kept giving us new techniques to work with throughout the day.

Donna Clement and I shared a palette of melted wax.

This sampler panel demonstrates different techniques and media for marking the wax surface.
Day 2 was filled with learning and exploring the encaustic medium.

Maiwa & Daniella Woolf

After waiting many years I have finally had a Maiwa Symposium experience.
I attended Daniella Woolf's encaustic workshop.

Having no experience with the encuastic medium, I was very pleased Daniella began at the beginning.

Preparing the panel.

And so on the first day I built up layers of wax...

...scraped them back then added more.
It was so different from stitching and dyeing.
