Encaustic art supplies for the do-it-yourself artist.
Encaustic materials and tools can be expensive for beginners, yet virtually all of the ingredients and equipment are easily available and affordable--if you know where to look. The Encaustic Materials Handbook is for artists with a do-it-yourself attitude, who want to explore and experiment with the medium and develop their own stunning effects. Here you can learn how traditional non-encaustic materials (such as oil paint, classic gesso and turpentine) can be used with gypsum, garden lime and powdered milk in the encaustic studio.
Discover dozens of ideas for: • Grounds and primers for encaustic painting • Encaustic medium recipes • Encaustic paint and glaze recipes • Cold wax medium, paint and glaze recipes • Cheap sources for materials
