Exploring the Surface: Painting with Cold Wax
Whether
brushing, drawing, scratching, scraping, rubbing, pressing, pushing,
pulling or employing knife techniques, this ancient medium fosters
versatility. Its translucent qualities allow light to penetrate into the
paint surface, emphasizing rich and vibrant colour, depth and tone.

Texture, movement and fluidity can easily be achieved via working with cold wax , oil paint and drawing materials and I will share techniques and tools used with this tactile painting medium. Recommended for artists with some painting experience.
The first painting is lovely, but seeing the whole diptych, it's just so beautiful. Love the rich autumn colors.
