I fell in love with the process of using cold wax in my oil painting because of Marina’s class! The videos made me feel as if I was right there, in Marina’s beautiful studio, while she patiently taught me step by step. Her love of the creative process shines and spills over onto her students. By the end of the series, I knew I wanted to push my limits and see how far I could go by experimenting with cold wax in my paintings. I felt she gave us all the freedom to use this medium in various ways and gave lots of examples along the way to help us see just what cold wax can do
