Encaustic painting, also known as hot wax painting, is made of heated bees wax mixed with pigments and resin, applied to paper, canvas or wood. Since the medium is thermally malleable, it can be sculpted, heated and melted. Artists often use spatulas, knives, brushes, torches, heat guns or heating tables when painting. In this workshop we learned how to work with encaustic on a heating table, this will allow us to have a very fluid, transparent and vibrant paint which we apply on sheets of paper.
