Learn More About PWF

More than just a course, this masterclass is a deeply immersive experience that connects you with the soul of encaustic art and a thriving global community of artists.

This year we introduce classes by a world famous photographer and videographer who will help you with your photography skills for your photo encaustic work AND a very well known creativity life coach!

“The instructors of Painting With Fire are an extraordinarily talented group of well-established artists, all united by their passion for painting with molten beeswax. Their artistic approaches are as diverse as they are — ranging from traditional portraiture to eclectic mixed media, from two-dimensional to sculptural works, and from glass-smooth finishes to richly textured surfaces.

What truly sets this program apart is the generosity of its instructors. They are approachable, encouraging, and deeply committed to sharing their expertise. Whether answering questions, offering insights, or inspiring creativity, they foster an engaging and supportive learning environment.

The value is unbeatable — less than the cost of a single in-person workshop grants you lifetime access to a full year of top-tier content. Having purchased and watched all four previous years of Painting With Fire, I can confidently say there’s no better resource for encaustic artists. The tutorials have not only inspired me but have also significantly enhanced my artistic skills.

Whether you’re a beginner exploring encaustic painting, an experienced artist looking to expand your practice, or someone seeking a vibrant and supportive creative community, Painting With Fire has something for you.”

“I thoroughly enjoy every single tutorial, regardless of whether the artist and/or their style resonates with me. Everyone has such wisdom & expertise, and they all share so passionately & generously. Kudos to you for assembling such a remarkably talented group of people and for creating such a rich and diverse community — no easy feat in the best of times, let alone in the midst of a global pandemic (which is, I believe, when PWF was conceived & birthed into being).”
