When did you discover that the Encaustic medium is your passion and talent? I saw a demonstration of the medium while in college back in 1992, before the internet. I taught myself through bits of information here and there that I found at the campus library. What made me passionate about encaustic was its ancient and rich history, its smell, texture, translucency and quick drying time. I often work in layers and the medium enables me to continue working on a several pieces at once without waiting for them to dry. I've never really thought of encaustic in terms of being my talent rather, that I'm a painter that happens to use encaustic to best execute the vision I have for my work. |

The following is my Q&A with Elise Wagner. She is a nationally known Encaustic artist and was recently featured in Art in America. Her MindGlo classes have received rave reviews. The most exciting thing for the learners is bringing home their very own piece of hangable art. The amazing thing is that they did this in 4 hours with no experience. The image to the left is just one example of their work. You can find a variety of Elise's upcoming Encaustic classes here:
