This weekend I took an Encaustic Photography workshop with
Nichole Dement at the
Photo Center in Seattle. What a blast. Nichole is an excellent teacher - really knowledgeable and patient. I learned more than I imagined I would and am now completely excited to start doing encaustic on my own.
I worked on two pieces. This is the smaller of the two (6"x6") and includes a photo of an abandoned house that I've posted
before. This example includes the photo, a transfer, incising, paint, oil pastels, and, of course, wax. The little "dots" around the orange square remind me of stitches. Hopefully, I can convince hubby that he needs to share a corner of the garage with my new-found obsession.
