paint with beeswax, heat, & fire!
Encaustic painting is an art form like no other. Layers of luscious, oil tinted beeswax fused together with heat and flame. From original art, classes, supplies, DIY kits, coaching for creatives, and online learning, there is something for everyone. Be the first to know!
brand new online learning!
online monthly learning through patreon
One of the things that I love most about teaching encaustics, is the ongoing connection and relationship to my students. When I was looking into online learning options, I wanted something a little different from the traditional online course model. I wanted a platform where I could not just teach technique but really support people's creative journey on an ongoing basis. Then I discovered Patreon. Rather than a one time course, Patreon is a monthly subscription where I hope to feed your curiosity, get your creative juices flowing, and provide a space where you can nurture your own creative practice.
Starting at only $5 a month, there are 3 tier options allowing you to choose your level of engagement from adding a little extra creativity in your life, to diving deep into encaustic painting, to starting your journey as a creative entrepreneur.
Thanks so much for your support. I can't wait to see you there!
