​Abstracting the Landscape: A Vermont Encaustic Retreat
Using Vermont’s ever-changing light and stunningly diverse landscape as muse, this retreat experience is designed for artists interested in transitioning to an abstract encaustic painting style or advancing their abstract practice, while also developing a unique creative voice. Traditional outdoor image gathering techniques are combined with guided studies exploring new ways of seeing and simplifying color, value, texture and form. Outdoor studies are then translated into encaustic paintings using comprehensive translucency, layering and color mixing techniques, which may be combined with collage and/or mixed media to make the abstract landscape your own. Considerations of our body’s connection and its direct relationship to landscape will also be discussed through journaling, readings and expressive mark-making exercises. Optional individual critiques with both instructors will be offered to all participants.

The Vermont Landscape as Muse: Encaustic on Paper & the Written Word
In response to the recent pandemic, some artists had to adapt to smaller spaces, modify their painting media or change their work content entirely. As a result of these changes, many artists turned to the simplicity of working on paper. This workshop explores the immediacy and process-diverse technique of encaustic mono-printing in combination with the written word. Mapping, journaling and image gathering provide the inspiration to develop ideas and areas of focus for series based work. Exploring the widely varied Vermont landscape, we will use our body’s sensory connection and it’s direct relationship to the landscape to explore our personal artistic voice. Through journaling, readings and expressive mark-making exercises, we will access layers of the self and apply that to the page. Optional individual critiques with both Cynthia and Lorraine are offered to all participants.

Working on both paper and fabric, we will experiment with pressed botanicals, various eco-printing techniques, photo transfer and in depth encaustic collage processes. Bridging the gap between art and craft, content and creation, participants are encouraged to develop a personal vocabulary by applying these new techniques to their current ideas and methodologies.
