Cold wax painting is a sculptural painting technique that uses cold
wax medium with oil paint. We will approach it as an abstract and
experimental painting method, but this method can also be used in
representational and other painting applications.
The cold wax medium thickens the paint and creates a texture,
transparency, and visual depth that is like encaustic painting, but
without the use of heat. It is a brushless technique; marks can be
made with whatever strikes your fancy.
