“Oils and cold wax are pure magic together. The texture, the softness, the depth, it invites you to slow down and really feel the painting.”

Marina Teding van Berkhout

Cold Wax Artist & Instructor

I'm Marina, a Dutch professional artist living in the South of France. I created this free lesson because I would love for you to discover the cold wax medium! There's something magical about letting go of perfection, picking up a palette knife, and just playing. Cold wax opened up a whole new world of painting for me, and I want you to experience that same creative freedom. Whether you're a complete beginner or you've been painting for years, you are going to love it!
