A Note on the Encaustic Art Course from Gary Simmons:
Image of Encaustic Wax Art / Painting Courses in Jamaica"I have been painting with wax now for 8 years and during that time have developed this medium into a viable art form. I have now had art exhibitions in London, Monaco, Cannes, Antibes and Los Angeles the work met with great interest.

From there, it went on to being shown in top interior design showrooms in Cannes and London. A huge part of my market was made to order work where people would give me swatch colours and I would work on commissions.

After having so many students ask to learn the technique, I have decided to start these workshops to learn this incredible and profitable art form."
