I’m coming to you straight from my not-quite-finished garage (which is going to look very different soon!), but today I’m here to share something I’m truly excited about.
I’ve created a brand-new Cold Wax Workshop—professionally filmed, beautifully structured, and packed with 12+ value-filled modules designed to elevate your paintings, spark new creativity, and help you avoid all the pitfalls I had to learn the hard way.
Cold wax is an incredibly sensual, enticing medium… but it can also turn into mud fast if you don’t know the tricks. That’s why I built this workshop—to give you the skills, clarity, and confidence you need to really make your paintings sing.
🔸 Here’s what you’ll learn inside the workshop:
• My go-to colors and how to mix cold wax with oil paint
• How to use a squeegee (my favorite tool!)
• How to create those gorgeous neutrals that make your bright colors pop
• Which papers you can and should never use with cold wax
• A full abstract demo • A floral demo
• All the surprising tools you can find in your garage or hardware store
• How and why I sand my paintings (and how it can save a dud)
• How to finish a work on paper without spending a fortune on framing
• How to get buttery-smooth, flawless cradle-board edges
… and so much more!
Every module is packed with tips, demos, and insights—everything I wish someone had told me when I started working with cold wax.
If cold wax painting has been calling your name, or you’re ready to take your work to the next level, this workshop is for you.
