The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word mean ing “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with bru shes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previ ous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medi um. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished \, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to b e added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic pa inting.

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word mean ing “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with bru shes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previ ous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medi um. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished \, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to b e added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic pa inting.

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word mean ing “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with bru shes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previ ous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medi um. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished \, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to b e added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic pa inting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working tem perature\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Exper iment with different materials to create an 8 x 8 collage.\n\nLevel: Begin ner\nView/Print Class Information and Material List\nMaterial List\nNone.\ n\n\nGot a question about this class?  Write the instructor.\n[contact-fo rm][contact-field label="Name" type="name" required="true" /][contact-fie ld label="Email" type="email" required="true" /][contact-field label="Webs ite" type="url" /][contact-field label="Message" type="textarea" /][/conta ct-form] CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center\, 111 Pilgrim Mill Rd\, Cumming\, GA 30040\, C umming\, GA\, 30041\, United States GEO:34.210207;-84.132135 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Rd\, Cummi ng\, GA 30040\, Cumming\, GA\, 30041\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X- TITLE=Cumming Arts Center:geo:34.210207,-84.132135 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:77@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20180921T160000Z DTEND:20180921T200000Z DTSTAMP:20180807T101720Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/open-studio-7 SUMMARY:Open Studio DESCRIPTION:What is Open Studio?\nLooking to join a group of artists that m eets weekly and have fun?

Working with shapes\, values\, edges\, and co lor\, Nancy will help guide you to edit\, simplify\, and interpret the sce ne to tell a story and create that emotional response in the viewer that a ll artists seek. By working quickly and efficiently\, learn how not to get bogged down by detail and stay loose. If you are new to plein air paintin g or want to take your skills to the next level\, this class is geared tow ards you.  Nancy’s demos will include discussion on materials\, composi tion\, value studies. color temperatures and color harmony\, importance of simplifying\, massing\, underpainting\, and discussion on what makes a su ccessful painting\n\n\n \;\nLevel:  All\n\nView/Print Class Informati on and Material List\n\nMaterial List\nSupply List for Pastel Painters:\n\ n Packing light -Plein Air Essentials\n\nNo one wants to lug heavy suppli es around while out in the field.  After you done it once\, you learn\, n ever again! So think\, less is more.\n\nI use a back pack on wheels. Best place to look is online. Look for something sturdy and strong and roomy e nough for pastel box and added supplies In the past\, I also used a plas tic rolling cart (that folds up) from Office Depot\, which also works wel l and is inexpensive.\n\n \;\n\n Pastel box:\n\nI use a Heilman Paste l Box. It’s an investment\, but well worth it if you plan to continue w ith pastels.\n\nHeilman also has accessories which are great for plein air . An easel attachment that attaches right into the pastel box. Other pas tel boxes: Edgmon Pastel box.\n\nhttps://www.edgmonart.com/pastel-boxes-fo r-studio-and-field/\n\nDakota has a pastel box as well:\n\nhttps://www.dak otapastels.com/pages/boxesstorage.\n\nAspx\n\n \;\n\nYou can use anyth ing\, really. A plastic container or a cigar box. Pastels need to be brok en and sorted into colors and values. This makes it easier to find just t he color and value needed\, quickly.\n\n \;\n\n Easel:\n\nThere are s everal easels to choose from. Having a tripod with attachment along with your Heilman box\, works well. French easels (half or full) works great. Be careful it might get to heavy but it has a drawer\, perfect for holdin g your pastel box.\n\nSoltek easels is fantastic\, but expensive.  The ha rd part is that an inexpensive easel does not have a way to hold your pas tel box. And that’s very important! However\, you can also carry a smal l inexpensive folding table in your rolling cart.\n\nI found the pochade wooden boxes very heavy\, so I don’t recommend them.\n\n \;\n\n[env ira-gallery id="39590"]\nGot a question about this class?  Write to the i nstructor:\n[contact-form][contact-field label="Name" type="name" require d="true" /][contact-field label="Email" type="email" required="true" /][co ntact-field label="Website" type="url" /][contact-field label="Message" ty pe="textarea" /][/contact-form] CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center\, 111 Pilgrim Mill Rd\, Cumming\, GA 30040\, C umming\, GA\, 30041\, United States GEO:34.210207;-84.132135 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Rd\, Cummi ng\, GA 30040\, Cumming\, GA\, 30041\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X- TITLE=Cumming Arts Center:geo:34.210207,-84.132135 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:95@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20181011T160000Z DTEND:20181011T210000Z DTSTAMP:20180907T115054Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/beginner-encaustic-painting-with- kris-straukas-4 SUMMARY:Beginner Encaustic Painting with Kris Straukas DESCRIPTION:Class Description\nInstructor:  Kris Straukas\nFee:  $125.00\ nWhat is Encaustic Painting? The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word mean ing “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with bru shes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previ ous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medi um. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished \, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to b e added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic pa inting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working tem perature\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started.

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meanin g “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax an d Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, p igment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brush es and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previou s layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium . They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike o ther paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic pain ting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working tempe rature\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started.

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meanin g “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax an d Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, p igment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brush es and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previou s layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium . They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike o ther paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic pain ting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working tempe rature\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started.

The word “Encaustic” i s a Greek word meaning “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax an d resin is melted\, pigment can be added\, and applied in layers to a poro us surface with brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to f use it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile \, spontaneous medium. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create co llage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it go es from a liquid to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing add itional layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the bas ics in Encaustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperature\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started.

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of n atural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and re sin is melted\, pigment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous s urface with brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, s pontaneous medium. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, lay ered in opaque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, scul pted\, polished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create collag e works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes f rom a liquid to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additio nal layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a s afe working temperature\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started.

It is a controlled approach and alternative to traditional wa tercolor. It can be used as a supplement or stand-alone medium. Drybrush i s also paper dependent. By using hard\, compact cold press paper\, the art ist can lift paint to create highlights\, light channels\, and other peak areas.\n\nIt is "painting by subtraction".   Additional subtracting\, an d/or adding paint by layer\, and any reworking can only be performed after previous layer is completely dry. This is to maintain the integrity of th e paper in use.\n\nIn this course\, students will be improving upon their watercolor technique by introducing a new style of dry brush painting. Thi s technique will improve control over the watercolor paint\, allowing for a more photorealistic finished product. Alan R. Young has chosen to focus on painting animals\, as the sharpening of details in depictions of animal s can be easily demonstrated using this method.\n\nMasking fluids are also used periodically to maintain negative areas.\n\nBasic drawing fundamenta ls are also covered on this class.\n\nAll reference photos\, such as pets and animals\, must be in hard copy.

I grew up in a small Amish town in Indiana.  Sometimes I find myself drawn back to the barns\, farm animals and hay bales.  Painting them tak es me back home to the colors of the farmland in the spring\, the smell of fresh hay.\nI have traveled throughout Europe painting entirely different scenes: vineyards and small villages\, but there is no place like home.  I have studied in Taos\, Santa Fe\, Scottsdale and Europe.  I have been influenced by many great teachers\, but I am still in awe of the great Mas ters.\nAs in design work\, I enjoy all styles of painting: still life with brilliant colors\, flowers with a pallet knife and mixed media. My painti ngs hang in many private homes as well as corporate offices and I am very grateful for the many awards I have received for my work.  I am now teac hing and painting full time.  My desire is to touch the hearts of those w ho see my work and to influence and encourage those who love to paint as m uch as I do.  Please contact me to discuss the many workshops and private lessons offered at Art on Main.\nThe highlight of my art career was teach ing President George W. Bush in January\, 2013\, an unforgettable experien ce with a talented man and a great person.\nBonnie Flood\, who recently mo ved to SC\, will return to the Cumming Arts Center in May 2021 and will be teaching this three day class.\nFinishing Your Paintings using a Pallet K nife\nMay 5th\, 6th and 7th  10AM - 4PM\nClass Minimum 6\nClass Cost:  $ 385\nBring your lunch and beverages\nClasses are in upstairs classroom\nSo cial distancing in classrooms\nCDC guidelines are observed at the Cumming Arts Center\nONLINE REGISTRATION AND PAYMENT FORM↓\n[wpforms id="44901" title="false"] CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:399@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20210505T223000Z DTEND:20210506T013000Z DTSTAMP:20210224T184032Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/drawing-studio-evening-sessions-2 021-05-05 SUMMARY:Drawing Studio - Evening Sessions DESCRIPTION:Instructor - Kris Straukas\n      \nDrawing Studio sessions will allow artists to work on their drawing projects with support of an i nstructor to help achieve their artistic goals.\nOne of the most difficult tasks artists complain about is scheduling a dedicated time to work on th eir art.

I’m a life long resident of Forsyth County. I love to paint\, create all kinds of crafts\, and write s hort stories of life long ago from old stories my father used to tell me w hen I was a child. I’m a mother of 4 and grandmother of 11. I attended F orsyth County High School and started my love of painting there. I’ve al ways loved to draw and as a child drew on everything….including an old w hite car we had. Daddy allowed me to draw Betty and Veronica from the Arch ie comic books on the back truck hood!! Big fun!!! My formal training bega n in front of my T.V. set with the legendary two… “Bob Ross and Bill A lexander.” I painted along with these two wonderful artists  and then g ave up painting when my children came along. After that\, I mostly just da bbled now and then and drew things for the kids and grandkids for school u ntil my son asked me to do a portrait of his wife. That was 5 years ago. I ’ve been painting strong from that time on. I have furthered my educatio n in photo realistic painting with artist Michael James Smith from the U.K . I love painting realistic landscapes and doing portraiture. I also enjoy rendering realistic pastel paintings of animals and people.  I am still currently furthering my education with the Michael James Smith Art School and hope to pass along what I’ve learned to other budding artists to enj oy and learn from.\nPAINT A T - SHIRT\nSATURDAY JUNE 5TH  one class only\ nTIME:  1 PM UNTIL EVERYONE FINISHES THEIR SHIRTS\nAges: 12 and up\nCLAS S FEE:  $20\nSupply List:\nCotton t-shirt (needs to be cotton)\nT-shirt i nsert or large piece of cardboard to go inside t-shirt\nAny size stained g lass pattern from online printed out in bold black\nAcrylic or fabric pain t in the colors desired\, can use metallic as well.\nBrush assortment- esp ecially a liner brush\nFINE POINT Black sharpie marker for drawing patter n\nAll other supplies will be furnished. Dress for painting.\n[wpforms id ="44824" title="false"]\n\n \; CATEGORIES:Painting,Textile LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:423@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20210608T180000Z DTEND:20210608T200000Z DTSTAMP:20210529T230854Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/drawing-studio-day-sessions SUMMARY:Drawing Studio - Day Sessions DESCRIPTION:Instructor - Kris Straukas\n     \nDrawing Studio sessions w ill allow artists to work on their drawing projects with support of an ins tructor to help achieve their artistic goals.\nOne of the most difficult t asks artists complain about is scheduling a dedicated time to work on thei r art.

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “to heat or bur n in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crys tallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigment can be added \, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium.\n\nThe wax can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immedia tely.\n\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperature\, to ols required and safety precautions to get you started.

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “ to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Dam ar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigmen t can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes an d other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous lay er. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. The y can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or tran slucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or c ombined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a soli d state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperatur e\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment w ith different materials to create an 8 x 8 collage. All materials are incl uded. CDC guidelines will be followed and masks are requested for unvaccin ated students.\n\n\nDATES: January 21st or February 25th\nTIME: 10AM TO 3P M - Lunch Break Incl.\nCOST: $125.00 - Materials Included\nLOCATIONS: Cumm ing Arts Center - Upstairs Classroom\n \;\n\n[wpforms id="44859"] CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:493@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20220125T180000Z DTEND:20220125T200000Z DTSTAMP:20211111T020247Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/drawing-studio-day-sessions-22 SUMMARY:Drawing Studio - Day Sessions DESCRIPTION:Instructor - Kris Straukas\n      \nDrawing Studio sessions will allow artists to work on their drawing projects with support of an i nstructor to help achieve their artistic goals.\nOne of the most difficult tasks artists complain about is scheduling a dedicated time to work on th eir art.

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “ to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Dam ar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigmen t can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes an d other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous lay er. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. The y can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or tran slucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or c ombined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a soli d state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperatur e\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment w ith different materials to create an 8 x 8 collage. All materials are incl uded. CDC guidelines will be followed and masks are requested for unvaccin ated students.\n\nDATES: February 25th or March 25th\nTIME: 10AM TO 3PM - Lunch Break Incl.\nCOST: $125.00 - Materials Included\nLOCATIONS: Cumming Arts Center - Upstairs Classroom\n \;\n\n[wpforms id="44859"] CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:527@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20220226T180000Z DTEND:20220226T220000Z DTSTAMP:20220124T053637Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/watercolor-painting-studio SUMMARY:Watercolor Painting Studio DESCRIPTION:Watercolor Painting Studio\nInstructor - Hal Schwab\n \;\n               \n \;\nWatercolor Painting Studio will allow st udents of all levels of ability\, to work on their painting projects with the support of an instructor to help achieve their artistic goals.

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “ to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Dam ar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigmen t can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes an d other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous lay er. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. The y can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or tran slucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or c ombined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a soli d state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperatur e\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment w ith different materials to create an 8 x 8 collage. All materials are incl uded. CDC guidelines will be followed and masks are requested for unvaccin ated students.\n\nDATES: March 25th or April 29th\nTIME: 10AM TO 3PM - Lun ch Break Included.\nCOST: $145.00 - Materials Included\nLOCATIONS: Cumming Arts Center- 111 Pilgrim Mill Rd - Upstairs Classroom\n \;\n\n[wpform s id="44859"] CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:532@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20220326T180000Z DTEND:20220326T220000Z DTSTAMP:20220208T174445Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/watercolor-painting-studio-5 SUMMARY:Watercolor Painting Studio DESCRIPTION:Watercolor Painting Studio\nInstructor - Hal Schwab\n \;\n               \n \;\nWatercolor Painting Studio will allow st udents of all levels of ability\, to work on their painting projects with the support of an instructor to help achieve their artistic goals.

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “ to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Dam ar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigmen t can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes an d other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous lay er. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. The y can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or tran slucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or c ombined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a soli d state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperatur e\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment w ith different materials to create an 8 x 8 collage. All materials are incl uded. \n\nDATES: Three to Choose From: April 29th or May 20th or June 17t h\nTIME: 10AM TO 3PM - Lunch Break Included.\nCOST: $145.00 - Materials In cluded\nLOCATIONS: Cumming Arts Center- 111 Pilgrim Mill Rd - Upstairs Cla ssroom\n \;\n\n[wpforms id="44859"] CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:538@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20220430T180000Z DTEND:20220430T200000Z DTSTAMP:20220426T003738Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/watercolor-painting-studio-8 SUMMARY:Watercolor Painting Studio DESCRIPTION:Watercolor Painting Studio\nInstructor - Hal Schwab\n \;\n               \n \;\nWatercolor Painting Studio will allow be ginning level students\, to work on their painting projects with the suppo rt of an instructor to help achieve their artistic goals.

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “ to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Dam ar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigmen t can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes an d other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous lay er. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. The y can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or tran slucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or c ombined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a soli d state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperatur e\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment w ith different materials to create an 8 x 8 collage. All materials are incl uded. \n\nDATES: Three to Choose From: April 29th or May 20th or June 17t h\nTIME: 10AM TO 3PM - Lunch Break Included.\nCOST: $145.00 - Materials In cluded\nLOCATIONS: Cumming Arts Center- 111 Pilgrim Mill Rd - Upstairs Cla ssroom\n \;\n\n[wpforms id="44859"] CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:551@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20220524T180000Z DTEND:20220524T200000Z DTSTAMP:20220309T035444Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/drawing-studio-day-sessions-39 SUMMARY:Drawing Studio - Day Sessions DESCRIPTION:Instructor - Kris Straukas\n      \nDrawing Studio sessions will allow artists to work on their drawing projects with support of an i nstructor to help achieve their artistic goals.\nOne of the most difficult tasks artists complain about is scheduling a dedicated time to work on th eir art.

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “ to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Dam ar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigmen t can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes an d other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous lay er. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. The y can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or tran slucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or c ombined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a soli d state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperatur e\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment w ith different materials to create an 8 x 8 collage. All materials are incl uded. \n\nDATES: Three to Choose From: June 17th\, July 29th or August 26 th\nTIME: 10AM TO 3PM - Lunch Break Included.\nCOST: $145.00 - Materials I ncluded\nLOCATIONS: Cumming Arts Center- 111 Pilgrim Mill Rd - Upstairs Cl assroom\n \;\n\n[wpforms id="44859"] CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:637@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20220729T190000Z DTEND:20220729T210000Z DTSTAMP:20220630T213401Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/dinosaurs-unicorns-dragons-oh-my- 6 SUMMARY:Dinosaurs\, Unicorns\, Dragons\, Oh My!

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “ to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Dam ar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigmen t can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes an d other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous lay er. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. The y can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or tran slucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or c ombined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a soli d state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperatur e\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment w ith different materials to create an 8 x 8 collage.

The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “ to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Dam ar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigmen t can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes an d other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous lay er. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. The y can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or tran slucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or c ombined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a soli d state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nThis class will teach you the basics in Encaustic painting. Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperatur e\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment w ith different materials to create an 8 x 8 collage. All materials are incl uded. \n\nDATES: August 26th OR September 23rd\nTIME: 10AM TO 3PM - Lunch Break Included.\nCOST: $145.00 - Materials Included\nLOCATIONS: Cumming A rts Center- 111 Pilgrim Mill Rd - Upstairs Classroom\n \;\n\n[wpforms id="44859"] CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:652@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20220924T180000Z DTEND:20220924T220000Z DTSTAMP:20220807T192544Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/watercolor-painting-studio-25 SUMMARY:Watercolor Painting Studio DESCRIPTION:Watercolor Painting Studio\nInstructor - Hal Schwab\n \;\n               \n \;\nWatercolor Painting Studio will allow be ginning level students\, to work on their painting projects with the suppo rt of an instructor to help achieve their artistic goals.

Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperature\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment with differ ent materials to create an 8 x 8 collage. All materials are included. What is Encaustic Painting? The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pig ment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or t ranslucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, o r combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike oth er paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a s olid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be ad ded immediately. \; Click Here for Kris' Artist Bio. \; \; &nb sp\;  \;  \;\n\nDates Available:\nFriday\, December 16th \; -& nbsp\;  \;10AM to 3PM\nFriday\, \; January 20th\nCost: $145.00 - M aterials included.\n \;\n\n\n\n[wpforms id="44859" title="true" descri ption="true"]\n\n\n\n\n\n CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:711@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20221220T223000Z DTEND:20221221T003000Z DTSTAMP:20221122T211130Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/drawing-studio-tuesday-evening-se ssions-10 SUMMARY:Drawing Studio - Tuesday Evening Sessions DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\nInstructor - Kris Straukas\n \;  \; \; &nbs p\;\nDrawing Studio sessions will allow artists to work on their drawing p rojects with support of an instructor to help achieve their artistic goals .\nOne of the most difficult tasks artists complain about is scheduling a dedicated time to work on their art.

Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperature\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment with differ ent materials to create an 8 x 8 collage. All materials are included. What is Encaustic Painting? The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pig ment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or t ranslucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, o r combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike oth er paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a s olid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be ad ded immediately. \; Click Here for Kris' Artist Bio. \; \; &nb sp\;  \;  \;\n\nDates Available:\nFriday\, \; February 17th\nF riday\, \; April 21st\n \;\n\nCost: $145.00 - Materials included.\ n \;\n\n\n\n[wpforms id="44859" title="true" description="true"]\n\n\n \n\n\n CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:724@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20230220T213000Z DTEND:20230220T233000Z DTSTAMP:20221220T024942Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/fine-art-drawing-workshop-for-chi ldren-22 SUMMARY:Fine Art Drawing Workshop For Children DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\nFine Art Drawing Workshop For Children\nInstructor - El izabeth Porcel\n \;  \;  \;  \;\n \;  \;  \; \ n\n \;\n\n \;\n\nEach workshop will consist of an art history mome nt\, demonstrations of technique and completion of one to two formal exerc ises.

Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperature\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment with differ ent materials to create an 8 x 8 collage. All materials are included. What is Encaustic Painting? The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pig ment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or t ranslucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, o r combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike oth er paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a s olid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be ad ded immediately. \; Click Here for Kris' Artist Bio. \; \; &nb sp\;  \;  \;\n\nDates Available:\nFriday\, \; April 21st - 11a m to 3pm\nFriday\, \; May 12th - 11am to 3pm\nCost: $145.00 - Material s included.\n \;\n\n\n\n[wpforms id="44859" title="true" description=" true"]\n\n\n\n\n\n CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:785@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20230422T180000Z DTEND:20230422T220000Z DTSTAMP:20230313T020122Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/watercolor-painting-studio-44 SUMMARY:Watercolor Painting Studio DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\nWATERCOLOR PAINTING STUDIO\nInstructor - Hal Schwab\n&n bsp\;\n  \;  \;  \;  \;  \;  \;\n \;\n \; \n \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\nWatercolor Painting Studio will allow beginning level students\, to work on their painting projects w ith the support of an instructor to help achieve their artistic goals.

Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperature\, tools required and safety precautions to get you started. Experiment with differ ent materials to create an 8 x 8 collage. All materials are included. What is Encaustic Painting? The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pig ment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or t ranslucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, o r combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike oth er paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a s olid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be ad ded immediately. \; Click Here for Kris' Artist Bio. \; \; &nb sp\;  \;  \;\n\nDates Available:\nFriday\, \; June 8th - 11am to 3pm\nCost: $145.00 - Materials included.\n \;\n\n\n\n[wpforms id="4 4859" title="true" description="true"]\n\n\n\n\n\n CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:809@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20230519T160000Z DTEND:20230519T180000Z DTSTAMP:20230509T155702Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/drawing-fundamentals SUMMARY:Drawing FUNdamentals DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDrawing FUNdamentals\nInstru ctor - Abby Hermes\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis course covers the fundamentals of d rawing in a fun and relaxed atmosphere!

Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (cry stallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigment can be adde d\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes and other tools . Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. They can be re-m elted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or translucent layer s\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, enca ustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a solid state and b ack again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.  \; \;\nThe instructor will reach out to you before class for more details and information!\n\nDates Available: \; August 25th \; or  \; September 22nd \; \;\nTIME: 10AM to 3PM\nCost: $145.00 - M aterials included.\n \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\nClick HER E for Kris' Artist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\ n\n\n[wpforms id="44859" title="true" description="true"]\n\n\n\n\n \; \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:849@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20230826T180000Z DTEND:20230826T220000Z DTSTAMP:20230620T194826Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/watercolor-painting-studio-58 SUMMARY:Watercolor Painting Studio DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\nWATERCOLOR PAINTING STUDIO\nInstructor - Hal Schwab\n&n bsp\;\n  \;  \;  \;  \;  \;  \;\n \;\n \; \n \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\nWatercolor Painting Studio will allow beginning level students\, to work on their painting projects w ith the support of an instructor to help achieve their artistic goals.

Learn how to melt the mediu m and keep it within a safe working temperature\, tools required and safet y precautions to get you started. Experiment with different materials to c reate an 8 x 10 collage. All materials are included. \nWhat is Encaustic P ainting? The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “to heat or bu rn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Beeswax and Damar Resin (cry stallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is melted\, pigment can be adde d\, and applied in layers to a porous surface with brushes and other tools . Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. They can be re-m elted to create different effects\, layered in opaque or translucent layer s\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, polished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. Unlike other paints\, enca ustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a solid state and b ack again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.  \; \;\nThe instructor will reach out to you before class for more details and information!\n\nDates Available: \; August 25th \; or  \; September 22nd \; \;\nTIME: 10AM to 3PM\nCost: $145.00 - M aterials included.\n \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\nClick HER E for Kris' Artist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\ n\n\n[wpforms id="44859" title="true" description="true"]\n\n\n\n\n \; \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:887@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20230923T180000Z DTEND:20230923T220000Z DTSTAMP:20230830T013417Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/watercolor-painting-studio-saturd ays-2 SUMMARY:Watercolor Painting Studio - Saturdays DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\nWatercolor Painting Studio - Saturdays \;\n   \;Instructor: Hal Schwab\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWatercolor Painting Studio wil l allow beginning level students\, to work on their painting projects with the support of an instructor to help achieve their artistic goals.

Encaustic medium is made of natural Bee swax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is mel ted\, pigment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface wit h brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in op aque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, pol ished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. U nlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liqu id to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nDates: \; August 15th\nTime: 10am to 3pm\nC ost: $145.00 per person \; Ages 18+\nAll Materials Included \;\n\n \n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n \;\ n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[wpforms id="44859" title="true" description="true"]\n\n\n\ n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:942@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20240223T220000Z DTEND:20240224T000000Z DTSTAMP:20231215T030639Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/drawing-fundamentals-6 SUMMARY:Drawing FUNdamentals DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDrawing FUNdamentals\nInstructor: Abby Hermes\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis four week course covers the fundamentals of drawi ng in a fun and relaxed atmosphere!

Experiment with different materials to create an 8 x 10 collage.&nb sp\;\nWhat is Encaustic Painting? The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Bee swax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is mel ted\, pigment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface wit h brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in op aque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, pol ished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. U nlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liqu id to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nDates: \; April 26th\nTime: 10am to 3pm\nCo st: $145.00 per person \; Ages 18+\nAll Materials Included \;\n\n\ n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n \;\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n[wpforms id="44859" title="true" description="true"]\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:1012@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20240427T180000Z DTEND:20240427T220000Z DTSTAMP:20240217T214110Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/watercolor-painting-studio-saturd ays-20 SUMMARY:Watercolor Painting Studio - Saturdays DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\nWatercolor Painting Studio - Saturdays \nInstuctor - Hal Schwab\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWatercolor Painting Studio will allow beginning level students\, to work on their painting projects with the support of an instructor to help achieve their artistic goals.

Experiment with different materials to create an 8 x 10 collage.&nb sp\;\nWhat is Encaustic Painting? The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Bee swax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is mel ted\, pigment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface wit h brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in op aque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, pol ished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. U nlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liqu id to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nDates: \; September 20th\nTime: 10am to 3pm \nCost: $145.00 per person \; Ages 18+\nAll Materials Included \;\ n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n  \;\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[wpforms id="44859" title="true" description="true"]\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:1134@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20240921T180000Z DTEND:20240921T220000Z DTSTAMP:20240821T173338Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/saturday-watercolor-painting-stud io-16 SUMMARY:Saturday Watercolor Painting Studio DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\nSaturday Watercolor Painting Studio\n \;\n\n\n\n&nb sp\;\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInstructor: Hal Schwab\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWatercolor Paintin g Studio will allow beginning level students\, to work on their painting p rojects with the support of an instructor to help achieve their artistic g oals.

Experiment with different materials to create an 8 x 10 collage.&nb sp\;\nWhat is Encaustic Painting? The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Bee swax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is mel ted\, pigment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface wit h brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in op aque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, pol ished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. U nlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liqu id to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nDates: \; January 24th\nTime: 10am to 3pm\n Cost: $145.00 per person \; Ages 18+\nAll Materials Included \;\n\ n\nRegistration Payment Policy\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n  \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[wpforms id="44859" title="true" descr iption="true"]\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:1215@staging.sawneeart.org DTSTART:20250125T180000Z DTEND:20250125T220000Z DTSTAMP:20250117T211913Z URL:https://staging.sawneeart.org/events/saturday-watercolor-painting-stud io-36 SUMMARY:Saturday Watercolor Painting Studio DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\nSaturday Watercolor Painting Studio\n \;\n\n\n\n&nb sp\;\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInstructor: Hal Schwab\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWatercolor Paintin g Studio will allow beginning level students\, to work on their painting p rojects with the support of an instructor to help achieve their artistic g oals.

Learn how to melt the medium and keep it within a safe working temperature\, tools required and safety precautions to get you st arted. Experiment with different materials to create an 8 x 10 collage.&nb sp\;\nWhat is Encaustic Painting? The word “Encaustic” is a Greek word meaning “to heat or burn in”. Encaustic medium is made of natural Bee swax and Damar Resin (crystallized tree sap). The beeswax and resin is mel ted\, pigment can be added\, and applied in layers to a porous surface wit h brushes and other tools. Wax layers are then reheated to fuse it to the previous layer. Encaustic mediums and paints are a versatile\, spontaneous medium. They can be re-melted to create different effects\, layered in op aque or translucent layers\, modeled\, textured\, scraped\, sculpted\, pol ished\, or combined with a variety of materials to create collage works. U nlike other paints\, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liqu id to a solid state and back again in seconds\, allowing additional layers to be added immediately.\nDates: \; January 24th\nTime: 10am to 3pm\n Cost: $145.00 per person \; Ages 18+\nAll Materials Included \;\n\ n\nRegistration Payment Policy\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n  \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[wpforms id="44859" title="true" descr iption="true"]\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House\, 111 Pilgrim Mill R oad\, Cumming\, GA\, 30040\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Road\, Cum ming\, GA\, 30040\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Cumming Arts Center @ the Brannon-Heard House:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/New_York X-LIC-LOCATION:America/New_York BEGIN:STANDARD DTSTART:20191103T010000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0400 TZOFFSETTO:-0500 TZNAME:EST END:STANDARD BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20200308T030000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0500 TZOFFSETTO:-0400 TZNAME:EDT END:DAYLIGHT BEGIN:STANDARD DTSTART:20201101T010000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0400 TZOFFSETTO:-0500 TZNAME:EST END:STANDARD BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20210314T030000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0500 TZOFFSETTO:-0400 TZNAME:EDT END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
