Module 2: The Cold Wax Techniques Toolbox

In this module we will go through all the techniques:

- Mark making, scribbling
- Transferring Paint
- Solvent Reduction
- Pours and Washes
- Powder and Pigments
- Masking and Collage

Module 3: 4 Mini Abstracts

This first step by step project is one of my favourites and a very good way to experiment with all the tools and techniques we discussed in the previous chapters.

 We will also look into the five elements of design: colour, shape, value, line and texture.

Module 4: Lush Landscape

In this Module we will continue to explore and use the different techniques. What works on wet on wet? which technique do we use on a tacky surface?

We will mix our own greens using warm and cool yellows and blues to create swatches and a beautiful landscape!

Module 5: Floral Flourish

In this final module, we'll dive into flower painting using all the techniques we've covered. From building texture and creating layers to mark making, glazing, and even splashing some solvent, we'll explore it all.

And as the 'cherry on the cake' we will add some gold leaf to the background! I think most of us love some sparkle!✨
