(hot wax) painting is an ancient medium, first used by the Greeks, that
has gained popularity with contemporary artists. A permanent and
non-toxic medium encaustic often results in exquisite, luminous painting
effects. Daily demonstrations are followed by hands-on studio practice.
Learn about suitable grounds supports, encaustic materials, combining
encaustic and oil sticks, tools for surface incising, and stencils. This
intensive course is designed for all levels of beginning, intermediate,
and advanced painters, as well as those familiar with encaustic. The
returning encaustic student will be guided to develop and expand upon a
personal style and theme, resulting in an integrated body of work.
Tuition covers all encaustic and oil stick materials and supports. Early
enrollment is recommended, as space is limited. Member benefits or
promotional savings are not applicable. (Certificate Program Code: FE) </span></div>

</span></b><b>Elena De La Ville<br />MM915B: </b><b>Tuition: $395
</b>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

<b>PAINTING WITH COLD WAX AND OILS
</b><b>Elena De La Ville<br />MM915B: </b><b>Tuition: $395
</b>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

Encaustic (hot wax) painting is an ancient medium, first
used by the Greeks, that has gained popularity with contemporary artists. A
permanent and nontoxic medium encaustic often results in exquisite, luminous painting
effects. Daily demonstrations are followed by hands-on studio practice. Learn
about suitable grounds supports, encaustic materials, combining encaustic and
oil sticks, tools for surface incising, and stencils. This intensive course is
designed for all levels of beginning, intermediate, and advanced painters, as
well as those familiar with encaustic. The returning encaustic student will be
guided to develop and expand upon a personal style and theme, resulting in an
integrated body of work. </div>

What a wonderful 3 weeks! I drove up to the Blue Ridge
mountains in NC to teach at Wildacres, part of the Ringling art program, I
stopped at Cherokee National Forest, stayed over night at Madison, GA. beautiful
small town, hiked to Crabtree, Linville and Banner Elk falls, trekked up and
down mountains and trails.</div>

I taught 2 different classes: Photography and Mixed Media,
with great participation by the students. It is like being at camp, make art
all day, get bells to let you know when food is served, get to see old friends
and fellow artists.</div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">About Encaustic</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Like all paints, encaustic consists of finely ground
pigments suspended in a medium. With oil paint, that medium is linseed oil.
With acrylic, it’s plastic polymer. With encaustic, it’s beeswax. While there
are many material qualities to encaustic—texture, malleability, even aroma—the
most salient is the way it interacts with light. Entering the translucent surface
of a wax painting, light reflects against the gessoed ground, refracting
slightly so that it emanates as a soft glow. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In and of itself, refractive luminosity is not unique to
encaustic; Rembrandt was a master of the oil glaze, employing its pigmented
viscosity to capture light and return its refulgence to the eye of the viewer.
But the substantive nature of wax allows it to do something that other mediums,
even Rembrandt’s glazes, do not. Optically deeper than its actual thickness, wax
seems to hold the illumination momentarily before releasing it. To look at a
painting in this medium is to experience the sensation of light suspended. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A technical feature of encaustic is that the wax must be
heated to be applied. Keeping the paint molten, the artist works swiftly to
charge the brush and place the stroke, whether it be a quick daub, a filmy
layer or a gestural swipe. Each layer or group of brush strokes must be fused
with a heating tool <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(tacking iron, heat
gun or small torch) so that the surface, while comprised of discrete
compositional elements, is structurally unified. Wax can also be poured and
cast.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Though it dates to Ancient Greece and and was the material
component of the Fayum portraits of Greco-Roman Europe, encaustic fell into
disuse as less technically demanding paints such as tempera—later, oil and much
later, acrylic—were invented. It became known in the mid-20<sup>th</sup>
Century when Jasper Johns adopted it as his medium of choice and is now more widely
employed as studio artists integrate it into their practice.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Concurrent Encaustic
Conference</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Swept Away</i> has
been planned to coincide with the Seventh International Encaustic Conference,
which takes place in Provincetown. The Conference, founded and directed by
artist Joanne Mattera and now co-produced with Truro Center for the Art at
Castle Hill, is the only fully professional event of its kind.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Devoted to the serious study of encaustic
painting, the Conference brings encaustic into the discourse of contemporary
art with three days of talks, panel discussions and demonstrations, and a
keynote talk by Barbara O’Brien, director and chief curator at the Kemper
Museum of Contemporary Art, Kansas City, who will speak on the work of Petah
Coyne. This year over 200 artists from around the world will convene May
31-June 2 . Workshops at Castle Hill will bookend the event. More information:<br />

photographed are personal friends of mine throughout the years, this body of
work which started with the 5X5 exhibition at the Museum of Arte Contemporaneo
in 1990, in which I captured images in 4X5 and 35 mm, black and white negatives and printed as silver gelatin prints. I kept on expanding on the theme. The current
showing, made up of scanned and the latest photographed work, the Torso series,
expresses our inter connectness of us in the world, to ourselves and to that
around us.</span></div>

to create a collage entirely with beeswax - no other glues or adhesives are necessary!
You’ll discover and practice techniques including layering, transparency and
wax stamping. Some supplies will be provided for basic collages, but feel free to
bring your art box (with scissors, glue, brushes and any kind of paint), your
favorite images and ephemera as well to personalize your art. Any images you
bring should be on regular computer paper, or Xerox. The</span></div>

</b>Encaustic (hot wax) painting is an ancient medium, first used by the
Greeks, that has gained popularity with contemporary artists. A permanent and
non-toxic medium encaustic often results in exquisite, luminous painting
effects. Daily demonstrations are followed by hands-on studio practice. Learn
about suitable grounds supports, encaustic materials, combining encaustic and
oil sticks, tools for surface incising, and stencils. This intensive course is
designed for all levels of beginning, intermediate, and advanced painters, as
well as those familiar with encaustic. The returning encaustic student will be
guided to develop and expand upon a personal style and theme, resulting in an
integrated body of work. Tuition covers all encaustic and oil stick materials,
and supports.</span></div>

Learn how to create a collage entirely with beeswax - no other glues or

layering, transparency and wax stamping. Supplies will be provided for basic
collages, but feel free to bring your favorite images and ephemera as well to
personalize your art. Any images you bring should be on regular computer paper,
or Xerox. The thinner the better, (reduce and enlarge these to have choice in
scale) Glossy photos won’t work well with this process.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">ARTS BY SU BYRON<br /><br />Elena De La Ville is a mixed-media artist with a passion for paint, rust<br />and wax. She was trained as a painter, photographer and textile designer<br />and her work encompasses all of these mediums. De La Ville studied textile<br />design at the Chelsea School of Art and Design in London and photography<br />at the Art Institute of Boston. She teaches photography and mixed media at<br />Ringling College of Art and Design and serves on the exhibition committee<br />at Art Center Sarasota.

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Usually this is a simple question, but in your case it isn’t: What’s your<br />medium?<br />I have been working almost exclusively with encaustic for the past 10<br />years, which is a mixture of beeswax and damar resin that’s applied while<br />hot and fluid. It dries very fast and provides texture and translucency at the<br />same time. I find it incredibly seductive. I combine that with film-based and<br />digital photography, plus other alternative processes.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />What role does texture play in your artwork?<br />For me, wax is texture upon texture. It’s built up in layers that hide and<br />reveal at the same time. On some pieces there are over 20 such layers. Markmaking in the soft material provides yet another level that builds up relief.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />Your work is filled with light and color. Is your sense of color intuitive<br />or is there a theory behind it?<br />I love color! I would say my color sense is intuitive. One of the reasons I<br />moved to Sarasota was to find that tropical sense of color after many years of<br />living in the Northeast.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />What does your “Totem” series represent?<br />These pieces are very important to me because they came to me at a time<br />in my life when I needed to prove to myself I could accomplish them. I was<br />facing debilitating symptoms and wanted to work through them. The totems<br />are the biggest pieces I have produced; they’re more than 6 feet tall. I see<br />them as “protectors of space.”</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />Is there an implied narrative element in your artwork or are you simply<br />interested in form for form’s sake?<br />As I work, my mind is constantly thinking, evaluating, responding to the<br />work in front of me. I always work in series and let each piece inform the<br />next. In a way, I am creating a dialogue or story between them.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />Who are your artistic heroes?<br />As a child I was influenced by Calder, Gego, Vasarely and Matisse. Later on<br />it was Rothko, Agnes Martin, Klee, Helen Frankenthaler and Anselm Kiefer.<br />My colleagues also inspire me.</span><br />

<b> </b>‘Gertrude Goldschmidt (1 August 1912–17 September 1994) also

Geometric abstract art and Kinetic Art. Although these genres influenced her

Early one recent morning more than a dozen women wearing
nothing but red genie pants gathered at the doors of the institution from where
Henri Matisse's Odalisque in Red Trousers went missing, to ask for the prompt
return of the painting they were emulating.</div>

The women were photographed by the Venezuelan artist
Violette Bule in poses reminiscent of the 1925 post-impressionist work that was
replaced with a fake over a decade ago.</div>

works," said Bule</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial;">So looking ahead:<br />I will be part of the
Creators and Collector tour in early March… This is put together by the Fine
Art Society of Sarasota and is always a treat, and is quite an honor as I get
to catch up with many of my local collectors and meet new ones. <br />So, in the
spirit of ‘planning’ I need to spend a good portion of my time in the studio.<br /> I
am now working on a series of ‘Totems’ that are 6 feet high.<br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial;">Here is a link to last years
