Abstractions in Cold Wax
with Diana Shay Diehl


September 21 and 28, 12:00 pm - 4 pm
2 sessions | 8 hours of hands-on instruction and play

$175.00 registration fee + $25 materials fee paid to instructor during first class 





This hands-on exploratory workshop is beginner friendly.  Participants will learn how cold wax and oils work in the painting process, safe practices, sculpting and painting tools, appropriate substrates, preparation of surfaces, finishing processes, and other mediums that make this forgiving, textural, and luscious medium so enjoyable to play with. All materials are provided. Water and snacks are on your own. Participants have the opportunity to make up to 12 small paintings on paper as we will work in a series. An itinerary and list of optional materials will be sent upon registration.

Contact Diana at info@dianashaydiehl.com or text (760)219-6219 for more information.

About Diana Shay

Diana's art practice is centered around collaborations and process over product - experimenting with how organic mediums interact in order to achieve how she perceives the environments she traverses through. She has a penchant for experimenting with photographic chemistries, beeswax (hot and cold), and natural pigments - all done from her home studio high in the Mojave Desert, her tiny studio home on wheels, or via a backpack in the wildernesses.
