I’m really excited for the International Encaustic Artist retreat in September at Edgefield McMenamins. It’s from the 22nd to the 25th and it will be all day work shops, seminars, meetings, and presentations all about encaustics! I get to meet some of my favorite local artists, learn tons of helpful information, eat some awesome food and even participate in an encaustic show. I’ll post more about the show when I receive details about which of my pieces was accepted. For more information about IEA check out their website: http://www.international-encaustic-artists.org/
