ENCAUSTIC REVIVAL

Bringing an Ancient Art Practice to the Classroom, Region 4

On July 1 and 8th, Region 4 educators attended an Encaustic workshop taught by artist and TAEA member Shauna Martin. Shauna has been working professionally with encaustic for the last 4 years and has incorporated it within classroom projects.

Participants learned a variety of techniques with encaustic medium including creating layers and textures and adding pigments and photos. By the end of the workshop, participating TAEA members walked away with 2 original works of art and a wealth of knowledge on how to incorporate encaustic in their classrooms and their personal practice.
