Encaustibook!

Books and beeswax?! Absolutely! Using precut wood book forms, we make use of multiple encaustic techniques to personalize them before working pages and embellishments. The possibilities are near endless and the fun of putting two mediums together in this way is enlightening. Expect to be inspired and leave with some very cool pieces! In this workshop, experience with encaustic will help you move faster, but beginners will find their way as well.
