We will explore working with collage techniques to create a 4x5 journal using encaustic medium. Encaustic is a medium of melted beeswax mixed with damar resin that is painted on a panel and heat fused. We will cover the dos and don'ts of working with encaustic medium, and then incorporate collage techniques as the base of your journal cover. You will learn how to use stencils, ephemera, pan pastels, and oil sticks with encaustic medium. 

 

After completing the covers, we will bind signatures (your pages) to your newly created encaustic covers using a single needle Coptic stitch. The end result will be a beautiful, one-of-a-kind handmade Journal.
