WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION | The simple application of wax to photographs is miraculous in how it transforms the image. However, this can be just the beginning. Wax can be incised, carved, pigmented and be a vehicle for collage using an amazing amount of substances. In this class, we will explore the more conceptual and creative aspects of working in this medium.

This workshop will cover:

• Incising in the wax with various tools
• Handcoloring with various media
• Image transfer onto the wax with inkjet copies 
• Layering of images with tissue paper
• Application of cold wax
• Various techniques to add texture to wax
• Finishing the sides of the boards and proper hanging techniques
