Explore the possibilities of oils and cold wax medium in this hands-on workshop with mixed-media artist Carolyn M. Abrams on Sat. April 25 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Cold wax, a blend of beeswax and resin, allows you to manipulate paint with unique tools, creating rich textures and intuitive, expressive effects. The class begins with a demonstration to introduce you to the materials and techniques, followed by ample time to experiment and explore your own creative ideas. All materials are provided, allowing you to experience this versatile medium and decide if it’s a fit for your artistic practice before investing in supplies.
