Collage/Mixed Media

Oil & Cold Wax

Oil and cold wax medium is an ancient method of painting, brought to life in color rich abstract and abstracted landscape paintings by three friends who have worked and studied together for years. Each artist has their own glorious style of working with this magical medium. Oil and cold wax allow the artist to create deep texture and pull in light and move it through each painting. These three artists join together to present their work and demonstrate in the Makers Place Workshop downstairs in the Lincoln City Cultural Center.
