Preview | Wabi Sabi Art Style: Hot Wax, Cold Wax and Plaster with Serena Barton

Join ArtistsNetwork.tv in welcoming Serena Barton with her video, Wabi Sabi Art Style: Hot Wax, Cold Wax and Plaster. The simple things in life-the ordinary, the aged, the humble-they inspire the wabi-sabi aesthetic and the expressive, intuitive style wabi sabi encompasses. In this creative workshop, Serena Barton, author of Wabi Sabi Art Workshop, introduces you to working in three great mediums, all of which richly demonstrate the wabi-sabi style of art: hot wax (encaustics), cold wax and plaster!

Hello Serena,
I was at Art & Soul 2012 and took two classes from you on Wabi-Sabi and on Encaustic art.
You were a huge inspiration to me. I have been studying Wabi-Sabi philosophy ever since and realized I had unconsciously been living in that way, now I am consciously adding it to my art as well as my life.
I am excited to find you are working with cold wax as I am curious about this medium, and am also wanting to work with encaustic tech. more. I have ordered your book from Amazon and am excited to work with you - even second hand - again.
Be well!
Anastasia

Me too...missed the cold wax. Love what you did, but I'm only to cold wax right now.

[@bernicesorge2374]

I was interested in how to combine cold wax and encaustic but you didn't mention cold wax unless you mean you wax cooled off and therefore it was cold wax...wanted the process of cold wax medium!
Wabi sabi is used loosely here!

This is great. I am all about a blow torch and art!

SOMEWHERE I MISSED THE COLD WAX

[@bru1015]

Yeah, I missed that too, and where's the plaster?

[@juliedeane9541]

Do you have a list of what is needed to do this type of Wabi Sabi Art? I see paint is it acrylic? Wax what type and where can it be purchased? Also please where kind I locate that type of paper and what is it called again please? This is so beautiful and meditative

This is a short section of a video put out by North Light years ago. I have current tutorials in cold wax on my channel, so look for those under my name if you are interested in cold wax.

[@artbyjune]

Very interesting video!

[@warpussnoluv]

Cool results,im going to try this with crayons and teacandles one day...once I have creative corner to mess around...

[@lucretiaonutube]

Can you use an iron to fuse or do you have to use a flame?

[@lkiezl]

Acrylic paint is fine under wax I do it often. Paint into tissue with it and then wax down onto the piece.

[@lindablumer18]

I missed the plaster

[@AI-xs4fp]

No.

[@keithgodfrey2023]

Just cut a public toilet door up

[@myriammorgenstern2163]

This is fake wabi sabi

[@juliedeane9541]

If this is fake, what is real? I am new to this term, philosophy and art form
