SUMMARY:Encaustic and Collage with Leslie Giuliani
DESCRIPTION:In this class\, we’ll explore the ancient yet contemporary medium of Encaustic—beeswax-based paint that also serves as a versatile adhesive—to create unique collages. This technique is wonderfully flexible: if you’re not happy with an arrangement\, simply re-melt and re-position. Participants will learn how to build richly layered artworks using Encaustic as “glue\,” incorporating fabric\, stencils\, prints\, personal drawings\, even Spirograph designs! We’ll also experiment with laser copy transfers and direct drawing. No prior experience is necessary\, and all materials are included. \nLeslie Giuliani is an American contemporary artist whose work merges textiles\, encaustic\, oil painting\, and printmaking. Born in Philadelphia\, PA\, she earned her BFA from the University of Delaware and continued her studies at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art. Her artwork is held in the collections of the Housatonic Museum of Art\, the State of Connecticut\, and numerous private collections. Giuliani has been awarded an Artist Fellowship Grant from the State of Connecticut for Craft as well as a residency fellowship at the Vermont Studio Center. She lives and works in Weston\, CT.
