Level 2 - Scratching the Surface and Beyond with Cold Wax Medium

via Skillshare

Overview

"Level 1 - Getting Started with Cold Wax Medium" gave you the basics and now, "Level 2 - Scratching the Surface and Beyond with Cold Wax Medium" will take you deeper into mark-making now that the initial layers of your project panels have dried some. This where it starts getting really fun!

In this class I'll:

- demonstrate how I mix a "married & varied" palette

- demonstrate the difference between the two most popular whites

- suggest fun, alternate types of brayers

- suggest a wide range of mark-making tools and materials that go well beyond the basics

- demonstrate working with many of those tools

- Provide a few useful bonus Studio Tips

- As an extra bonus, I'll include a short video called "Watch me Paint" that shows me working on a large 48x48 panel as well as some of the mark-making tools demonstration outtakes.

If you haven't taken "Getting Started with Cold Wax Medium" (https://skl.sh/2OXrg05) .  I suggest watching that first so that you have the basics of working with the medium as well as some base layers ready and somewhat dried on your project paintings before moving into this class.

In the upcoming "Level 3 - Digging Deeper into Working with Cold Wax" we'll explore a variety of media that can be used in your cold wax paintings, such as soft pastels, inks, pigment sticks, oil bars, pigment powders, and more, as well as look closer at different ways to use solvents.
