Get ready for a fast-paced dive into the magic of oil and cold wax! Join Karen as she demonstrates how to build luminous depth and texture through layering, scraping, and revealing what lies beneath. Watch as color contrasts, transparent veils, and intuitive mark-making transform chaos into beauty. Texture and translucency come alive through bold moves, unexpected marks, and the art of letting go. This one-hour demo is packed with tips, inspiration, and plenty of “aha” moments for artists who love to experiment and discover the energy and mystery hidden within the layers.
