Paper and Layers: The Art of Encaustic Collage

From base layers to surface design, Crystal Marie hopes you will fall as madly in love with the combination of wax and paper as she has. In this workshop, we will approach the art of collage and discover the endless potential of these two mediums when brought together on the canvas.

Discover how the use of encaustic wax can take your collage art to the next level through an examination of layers. From those that lie under the wax, to those that create the surface design of the piece, and everything in between. Encaustic wax will give your paper collage design a depth and luminosity impossible to achieve with any other medium.
