ART 8100 - Mixed-Media Encaustic Art

3 cr.

This course extends basic applications of encaustic art into mixed-media collage and assemblage, and students will work with a variety of media including paper, metal, wood and fiber. Sculpture, photography, printmaking, painting and drawing techniques will be employed to create works that combine multiple practices. Participants will be encouraged to continue to develop a personal artistic voice through the exploration of materials, techniques and composition. The medium of encaustic paint combines the luminescence of watercolor, the quick drying properties of acrylic with the richness of oils.
