Workshop: Got soy wax? Got dye? Put the two together in exciting combinations,
including crayons perfect for rubbings, drawing and writing, and hot, colored
wax - ideal for stenciling and stamping applications.
The workshop begins with a discussion of both products - dyes and wax -
and then jumps right into crayon production. A thorough explanation of the
wax’s characteristics will include open lab time for experimentation with
stamping and stenciling, and a specially formulated wax paste.
Additional lectures focus on building and using a steamer, ideas for
incorporation of techniques into other surface design processes, and an end of
week show and tell.
