I've been posting my encaustic scribble paintings on paper, but I thought I'd give you a taste of what we'll be doing in Plaster and Wax, a workshop I will be teaching at Art Unraveled in Phoenix on August 6, and again at Art and Soul in Portland on October 2.
I will post another installment of this demonstration, including application of encaustic medium and then drawing on the encaustic surface. Stay tuned.

I wrote you a few weeks ago with some questions about your classes in October at Art & Soul to which you kindly responded. Just wanted to let you know, I did sign up for 2 of them and I'm so excited to go. I've never taken an art class or attempted to be creative in front of anyone, so while it's a little intimidating, it's a LOT exciting. Can't wait to meet you in person!
Hi Jane. I now have a new, fabulous inspiration for my art! Julie Fei-Fan Balzer was my first muse, and I know she's taking your workshop soon. You could have been my first muse, but I discovered Julie before you. I guess you're both equals in my book. And I love your blog. It's chock full of great ideas. Do any men come to your workshops? I ask this because going to your workshop next year would be a great get-away for me and my husband. I could do art and he could do whatever he wants to do during the day. And, of course, he and I could have breakfast and dinner together. Thanks. --Deb Pierro (Bensalem, PA)
I have had some spam comments lately, advertising of stupid stuff. So I am moderating comments until I can figure out a better way to prevent spam. THANKS!
Wonderful results... is there no end to your creativity?
