PAINTING WITH COLD WAX AND OILS
Elena De La Ville
MM915B: Tuition: $395
In
this week long workshop artists explore abstract painting using cold
wax medium, tube oils, pigment sticks, and layering with a variety of
implements. We will investigate new ways to create textures, color
fields and mark making while focusing on developing a personal
vocabulary emphasizing the process and its experimental nature.
Participants will use an array of non-traditional tools and techniques
to build layers and add depth. Ample workshop time will be supplemented
with periodic critiques, presentations and discussions. This workshop
is well suited for those who have had some prior painting experience and
beginners wanting to experiment with new techniques. (Certificate
