FIRST FRIDAY
Friday, October 6, 2017, 6-9 pm

Introducing My Guest Artists
Jan Sparks and Ali van den Broek

“I paint what I see and what I love, but I am not content to stick with one medium.  This restlessness
has led me to experiment with encaustic allowing me to combine painting, collage, carving, color,
and texture in interesting ways.”  – Jan Sparks

“With a camera in my hands, I see behind the obvious: the shadows, reflections, designs

that often get missed. Now with encaustic, I am learning to translate those images into another
medium that brings out new qualities and dimensions.” –  Ali van den Broek

Join us in the Flatiron Building for refreshments, conversation and lots of art.

Directions to Patricia Kilburg Studio:
From S. Main Street take Pendleton Street approximately one mile into the Village of West Greenville’s arts district.  Studio is on the left at 1209 Pendleton Street in the Flatiron Building.

Two-Day Encaustic Workshop

I will be teaching a 2-day encaustic workshop at
Greenville Center for Creative Arts
Thursday and Friday, October 12 and 13

Experience encaustic–the ancient art of painting with pigments dissolved in hot beeswax, the same process used by the Egyptians to make their mummy portraits.  Using modern materials and methods, learn about the beauty and versatility of this luminous medium:  basic painting and fusing, incising lines and marks, creating texture and more.  Regardless of your skill level, you will create several small, beautiful encaustic paintings to take home.
