Description
Immersion into Encaustic Painting, A One-Day Hands-On Workshop in Dublin city centre
Sunday 12th July 2026 | 10:00am – 4:00pm
Limited places available – small group experience
Step into the world of molten wax painting
Discover the magic of encaustic painting — an ancient, expressive technique using heated pigmented beeswax and layered mark-making.
In this immersive one-day workshop, you’ll be guided step-by-step through the process of creating luminous, textured artworks you simply can’t achieve with traditional paint.
No experience needed. Just curiosity and a willingness to experiment.
What makes this workshop special
This is not a demonstration you watch from a distance.
It’s a fully hands-on creative experience where you will:
- Work directly with molten wax and professional encaustic materials
- Learn intuitive layering and texturing techniques
- Create multiple finished encaustic artworks
- Explore a relaxed, experimental approach to image-making
- Receive personal guidance throughout the day
By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with finished pieces and a clear understanding of how to continue at home.
