Join us for a special Oregon Coast reunion of Wags & Pags with visiting artist Jane Pagliarulo! Elise Wagner and Jane Pagliarulo taught together for eight years bringing Wax Collagraph Printmaking to Portland, Connecticut and Cape Cod. Learn to print by making marks and embossing textiles into wax using handmade Wagner Collagraph Wax at the Oregon Coast! Traditionally, in printmaking, a “collagraph” is a collaged printing plate. Wagner developed this unique approach to printmaking, replacing the collage on the plate with a specially formulated white encaustic wax. This class combines the techniques and approaches of both printmaking and encaustic painting to produce richly textured intaglio prints. Create plates from marks and textures applied with wax. In this class, we use both traditional plexiglas and flat Ampersand Claybord as the printing plate to learn the advantages of printing with each. We use non-toxic soy and honey-based Akua Inks on Japanese papers and Evolon microfiber. Learn more and register at the link below: https://www.pier11studio.com/wax-collagraph-printmaking
