Launch into encaustic painting with curated colors and surfaces ready to heat
Five essential colors (Cadmium Yellow Light, Manganese Blue Hue, Quinacridone Red, Titanium White, and Veronese Green), R&F's clear encaustic medium for extending colors and building translucent layers, plus brushes and palette cups designed to withstand sustained heat. The included technical packet walks you through fundamental techniques, fusing layers, creating translucency, building texture, with specific guidance on temperature control and surface preparation.
Three Ampersand Encausticbords provide proper working surfaces with the absorbency that encaustic requires for secure adhesion. The 8" × 10" board doubles as storage for your paint cakes between sessions, protecting them from dust while keeping your palette organized. Two 5" × 7" boards give you immediate surfaces for exploration and finished pieces. Soy wax simplifies cleanup, dissolving residual paint from brushes and tools without harsh solvents. You'll still need a heat source, a griddle or hot plate, but this kit eliminates the guesswork around which specific materials encaustic demands, letting you focus on learning how wax and pigment behave under heat.
