Encaustic Paint Party

Unleash Your Inner Artist with an Encaustic Painting Party!

What is Encaustic Painting?
Encaustic painting is an ancient art form using heated beeswax and pigments. This unique technique creates vibrant, luminous artworks with depth and texture, unlike any other medium.

During your party, you will:

• Learn the basics of encaustic painting: Discover how to melt and manipulate the wax, apply pigments, and create beautiful layers of color and texture.
• Explore different techniques: Experiment with various tools and techniques, such as:
  • Fusing: Melting layers of wax together to create depth and dimension.
  • Carving: Using tools to carve designs into the wax surface, revealing underlying layers.
  • Layering: Building up layers of color and texture to create complex and interesting effects.

Create your own masterpiece: Choose between creating your own unique artwork.

Or, follow along with an instructed piece to learn foundational skills. Our instructors will guide you through each step, from the initial design to the finishing touches. Current options include either the birds or the trees pictured below.

“My friends and I recently hosted a birthday party at Picket Fence Art Studio, and we had an absolute blast! We chose the encaustic painting option, which was a unique and rewarding experience. Jamie was incredibly patient and knowledgeable, guiding us through the process step-by-step. We learned about melting the wax, applying pigments, and creating different textures. Even though we were all beginners, we created some truly beautiful pieces of art. I highly recommend Picket Fence Art Studio for anyone looking for a fun and creative way to celebrate with friends and family.”  Susan
