November 15 - 16
Weekend Encaustic Monotype Workshop
with Elise Wagner and Master Printer Jane Pagliarulo
10:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Day 1: We start with a Beginning Encaustic Painting workshop at ELISE WAGNER’S STUDIO. This workshop will cover all the basic rudiments of encaustic, its history, application methods, tools, fusing, inlaying and incising lines. This par-
ticular introduction to encaustic is unique in a couple of ways; first, encaustic is applied to a plexiglas printing plate rather than the traditional birch panel; second, it merges encaustic’s natural resistance to moisture, making it ideal for printmaking. After a short demonstration, participants will be able to experiment with inlaying and incising techniques on a provided 12” x 12” re-useable plate to create textured collagaphs ready for color application and printing with Jane the next day at Atelier Meridian. The possibilities combining encaustic texture with printmaking are endless!

Day 2: We take it to a whole new level, going just down the street to Jane’s studio at Atelier Meridian, to produce monotypes from the encaustic plates. There, we will apply water based inks, painting or rolling them onto the encaustic plates, then we will print them using a press. Participants are encouraged to bring any tools or brushes you like using.
Two sheets of proofing paper included. Good printing paper is available for purchase, you pay for what you use at the end of the workshop.
Class limit 6 participants. $300 includes equipment and materials.

Elise Wagner has been working with and teaching the encaustic medium for over 15 years. Often referring to herself as “a closet printmaker”, Wagner has been using her encaustic surfaces for several years as collagraph plates for making monoprints. By employing similar methods of incising the surface found in intaglio printing, the wax surface offers a variety of exploitable textures. Check out her website at www.elisewagner.com
