Intro to Encaustic and Mixed media Workshop at Manor Mill in Monkton, MD
Combining encaustic with other materials and media opens a world of creative possibilities! Learn about painting with this ancient medium of beeswax, pigment and damar resin in this hands-on introductory workshop where you’ll learn safe studio practices and the encaustic painting basics. Various techniques will also be demonstrated including how to incorporate mixed media processes with encaustic such as photo transfers, embedded collage, glazes with pigment sticks, and incorporating found materials.

A Dialogue with the Earth 4 day art retreat in Port Orchard, WA
Bridgette will lead the class through a variety of mixed media techniques that draw upon elements found in her creative practice: encaustic, fabric, thread, photo transfers, collage and the addition of natural elements. We will use plaster, fabric and found natural materials to create book art pieces.
This mixed media exploration will act as a bridge to reconnect us to the stories of the earth around us
