Featured Product - art cards in a box
art card kits!
Encaustic Art Cards is one of my most popular workshops so I decided to get creative and box it up! This is a wonderful way to start your encaustic journey or a perfect activity to do on a girls night in. It also makes for a unique addition to a homeschooling arts curriculum or a fun activity to do with the kids.
Each kit includes detailed instructions with pictures, a full pound of beautifully encaustic paint, tins, brushes, a sculpting tool, oil pastels, and a bag of hand selected items for collage and mark making. You will get 6 sets of art cards with a compostable plastic sleeve for a finished professional artisan product that is perfect for framing or gift giving. Your kit will take you well beyond your 6 art cards and keep you painting for days! Additional art cards available.

placing an order
My line of encaustic supplies has come from a natural desire to support people at every step of the way as they explore this beautiful medium. My waxes are made in small batches from locally sourced beeswax when possible. I am happy to answer any questions you may have to ensure that you are paired with the supplies to best suit your needs.
Because of this, all orders are placed by contacting me directly by phone or email.

not sure where to get started?
come for a demo
Embarking on a creative journey is really exciting.....and can also be a little daunting. Come by the studio where I am happy to demo and answer any questions that you may have about the waxes, set up, or equipment. Maker sure to call ahead as I don't always work out of The Hive. 519-497-7646
book open studio time
Setting up an encaustic studio at home isn't always feasible and even if it is, sometimes its nice to get the creative juices flowing by working in a different environment. Open Studio's are for just that. Book as much or little time as you want for oly $20 an hour. All waxes and equipment included but bring your own substrates.
You must have taken an encaustic class with me in the past or be a proficient encaustic artist for Open Studio's as they are completely self-directed.
