Checking in. My friend came to visit today and we made a little video after she asked me how you could tell the difference between a cheap brush and a good one.
We horsed around for awhile and then we turned on the hot wax and I did the painting below; exploring some of the landscape imagery I've been working with.
I'm working cold wax over a large old encaustic painting as an experiment. I'll show you in a few days if I can get back to it. And for those of you who get my blog on a feed and never see the side bar, I am gearing up for a huge, tell-everything encaustic lollapalooza-extravaganza online class that starts on October 13th and goes on 6 days a week until November 11. You can read about it here.
Here are some kind words from participants of my last online class ...
"This really is the best online course I have taken. Such attention to detail." ---Sharon
"The videos for this class are wonderful! The images are so clear, the sound is great."---Ginny
"I loved the fresco wash video! I have watched it 8 or 9 times now. I was sooo excited to try this technique and paint a beautiful woman's face." ---Dorylyn
"I am loving (!!!) this class." ---Mary Beth
"Thanks for opening my creative eyes! This is definitely one of the best online classes I have taken .. and I've taken quite a few! "---Fran
Okay, see you in a few. Don't forget to get your brushes wet before you purchase them and make sure they are springy. You're welcome!! :-D

really nice art work
Beautiful colours and textures, Judy!I'd love to take part in your new encaustic workshop in october, although I'm an absulute beginner with that technique. Would you think I still can do it?
just absolutely VUNDERFUL work and thank you for the laugh right out loud video! xo
A great way to start my Monday morning...with a laugh AND a reminder to check my brushes!
Just fun to see you "LIVE" on your cute video. I am off to check my brushes as we speak.
As always these new pieces of art are quite wonderful.
I am sure your new class will be everything people have come to expect from you!
