Beginning Encaustic - Carol Odell
Thursday, May 31
10 – 4 pm
$190
Why encaustic? Wax as a painting medium offers the artist unique properties that strongly differ from other paint materials - it flows, but is also a dimensional solid that can be easily carved or transformed with heat. It is an adhesive; it is translucent and it “dries” almost instantly. This workshop is for artists wishing to learn the process of encaustic painting or for artists wishing to expand their experience with the medium. Demonstrations of a wide variety of techniques and materials will encourage students to experiment and adapt the medium to individual styles. Safety issues, resource information and reference materials will be discussed and shared.
Carol Odell is a local painter working in a non-representational style in the media of oil, monotype and encaustic. She believes in art as means of transportation away from the routines of life to a place of new experience and revitalization. She exhibits regularly with Provincetown Art Assoc., the Printmakers of Cape Cod, the Monotype Guild of New England, New England Wax and 21 in Truro. She and her artist husband have owned a gallery in Chatham for almost 40 years. She has taught workshops at the Cape Cod Art Association, the Cape Museum of Art, PAAM and Castle Hill. Her work has been exhibited at galleries in New England and is in the collections of Newport Art Museum, Boston Public Library, the Cahoon Museum of American Art and the Cape Museum of Art and in private and corporate collections.

Beginning Encaustic - Lynda Ray
Monday June 4
10 – 4 pm
$190
Encaustic is a luminous medium that is made up of molten beeswax, pigment and natural tree resin. The resulting surface is characterized by luminous, lush and translucent color. The viscous medium can be smooth and shiny, textured and three dimensional. After a brief history and a short review of safety practices, demonstrations will be presented of melting and fusing, easy parchment paper image transfer, collaged book making and texture using a brush, heated tools and a rubber stencil. At the end of the workshop you will be familiar with a range of techniques and ready to either work on your own or be prepared for other more advanced workshops.
Lynda Ray is curious about color and texture in the environment in which she lives. The viscous nature of encaustic creates the sense of constructing a painting.

Critical Feedback - Francine D’Olimpio
June 5
10 – 4pm
1 Session
$190
Critical feedback sessions are designed to give you what you might have gotten in art school but rarely get now: an evenhanded, non-emotional assessment of your work--not the uncritical I love it from friends, or the What does it mean? from a supportive but perhaps unenlightened family, but a larger and more useful consideration, such as What is your work about? How do you talk about it? Where does it fit into the larger picture? In this daylong workshop, Kobalt Gallery owner (and Beeline juror) Francine D’Olimpio will discuss these and other issues as you present your work for discussion in a supportive group. This is an opportunity to engage with a multifaceted gallerist whose background includes studio practice and who can offer unique insights into the possibility of breaking into the Provincetown gallery scene.

Advanced Transfers And Working Large - Tania Wycherley
Tuesday, June 5
10 – 4pm
$190
Register [only 1 spots left!]
This workshop provides the opportunity to try out the advanced image transfer techniques demonstrated by Tania at the 5th Internat’l Encaustic Conference. We’ll be working on panels that push the 11 x 17 inch paper barrier that most toner-based printers provide. Participants will cut their enlarged digital print divisions, plan and prepare their base and seamlessly piece it all back together. We will also have a chance to try some surface techniques (toner stacking, water-soluble wax pastel applications, and dry brush) to further diminish lines. In order to finish the day with a completed piece, we will be working on 18 x 14 inch or 16 x 16 inch panels. However once you have mastered the technique, your image resolution will be your only size barrier. Join us for this exciting new workshop that will leave you with the tools to enlarge your photographs in wax. Go big!
Level: This is an advanced level workshop. Experience with encaustic and image transfers is expected. Tania’s “Advanced Image Transfers: Going Large” Conference Demo is not required, but is recommended. Please note there is serious elbow grease in burnishing.
Tania Wycherleyis a Canadian artist who combines her love of photography with a passion for encaustic painting. Her latest work focuses on balancing large image transfers with the medium.

Interesting colors and decorative patterns can be attained on pottery without glazes. Saggar firing is one method 
where pottery is exposed to vaporized minerals during the firing process allowing the pot to absorb colorants in random patterns. In this workshop, students will explore methods of preparing and firing their clay pieces in tin foil saggars to produce beautiful surface effects resulting from the interaction of clay and fire.
The first two classes will be dedicated to students making their own work: either on the wheel or hand building. During those classes, Lois will demonstrate various hand building techniques. The third class will be devoted to burnishing and applying terra sig and preparing the combustibles for the saggars.
On the fourth session, we will be loading the saggars and firing the kiln.
