The Encaustic Materials Handbook - Paperback
by Kassandra Kelly (Author)
Encaustic art supplies for the do-it-yourself artist. Encaustic materials and tools can be expensive for beginners, yet virtually all of the ingredients and equipment are easily available and affordable--if you know where to look. The Encaustic Materials Handbook is for artists with a do-it-yourself attitude, who want to explore and experiment with the medium and develop their own stunning effects. Here you can learn how traditional non-encaustic materials (such as oil paint, classic gesso and turpentine) can be used with gypsum, garden lime and powdered milk in the encaustic studio. Discover dozens of ideas for: - Grounds and primers for encaustic painting - Encaustic medium recipes - Encaustic paint and glaze recipes - Cold wax medium, paint and glaze recipes - Cheap sources for materials
Kassandra Kelly never thought her first book would be a nonfiction DIY art materials book. She can most often be found tucked behind the covers of a ghost story or murder mystery, the spookier the better. She received her B.A. from Reed College and her M.F.A. from Pacific University. She lives in rural solitude with two dogs, a shameful number of cats (okay, five), ten thousand Italian honeybees, and one partner affectionately known as The Theory. Probably to hide his identity.
