This workshop combines encaustic painting with printmaking techniques by creating collagraph plates that use wax to form the printable surface. Participants will be able to experiment with inlaying and incising techniques to create texture and build their images on reuseable Plexiglass plates. The plates can then be inked with water-based Akua intaglio ink, and printed on a press.
