Oil paint mixed with cold wax medium is an excellent material for mixed media painting. This class covers the use of college as a base layer for oil and cold wax, abstract drawing with colored pencils, charcoal and compressed carbon on both under and over layers of cold wax painting and strategies for using oil pigment sticks as a painting and drawing material in conjunction with oil and cold wax. Also included are the use of various additives for texture, for thickening and as a brushing medium. In addition to technical and material concerns, this class addresses abstract painting and design principles. Instructor Bio Sara Post is an abstract oil and cold wax painter. Her innovative techniques expand upon and deepen the surface possibilities for oil and cold wax through the use of mixed media, collage and drawing. She regularly exhibits her minimal abstractions at galleries in and around the San Francisco Bay Area. Her work is featured in Rebecca Crowell’s and Jerry McLaughlin’s ground breaking book, Cold Wax Medium. She is an instructor at art centers around the United States and at Ballinglen Arts Foundation, County Mayo, Ireland. A long time resident of Northern California, she lives and maintains a downtown studio in Davis.
