An Encaustic Art Studio for the Starving Artist

When you become intrigued by encaustic painting, and start learning how to do it, you might well be put off by the apparent expense of moving into this medium.
Yes, there are kits that will help you get started: studio essentials kit, and the complete studio startup set. You can find the first for over $300 and the second, for around $600.

This book will show you how easy it is to start with all the advantages of the $600 kit for around $270.

Even with that small amount of money, you will have more colors and more of them, than in that high-priced kit.

I decided to write this book after I delayed getting into encaustics because of the cost. I wasted 6 months that I could have been working with wax. After extensive research, I bypassed any kit, and set up my encaustic studio for much less. In doing so I spent more money than was necessary, but that is how I learned what I write about here. NOTE for non-North American readers: while the supplies and suggestions are universal, only U.S. suppliers are reviewed.

This book will save you the money I wasted. Enjoy!
