Workshop Description Our 5 day comprehensive workshops at R&F Handmade Paints give participants a thorough knowledge of the encaustic medium and method - from the classical to the wildly experimental. Artists with backgrounds in almost any medium will find these workshops are an exciting opportunity to expand their visual vocabulary with wax. Some who attend have little familiarity with encaustic, others have extensive experience working in the medium. The dynamic created by this diverse mix of artists contributes to the learning experience and to the discovery of new techniques and applications. In the 5 day workshop you get more free time, including one whole workday without an instructor to focus on the techniques you have learned and to devote time to developing your ideas. Scroll down to find out the details for these classes. What is Covered

Accommodations Click here for a list of recommended places to stay when you come take a workshop at R&F. Registration & Policies Workshops fill up months in advance, so early registration is strongly recommended. Participants are registered in the order that their applications are received. You may register by phone 1.800.206.8088, fax (845) 331.3242, or via email: mail@rfpaints.com. You can also fill out a registration form to sign up by mail. Please keep in mind that it is best to phone in your registration, since we will be able to tell you at that time whether or not a class is full. If a class is full, we keep a wait list. It is not unusual for participants to drop out. When this happens you will be notified asap that a space is open. A $100 deposit is required when signing up. Once we have received your deposit, we will send you a receipt which will indicate whether or not the class is fully enrolled. Once the class is fully enrolled, we will send out a confirmation packet which includes an accommodations list, directions to the workshop, material to bring, and technical sheets. The balance of your workshop is due one month before the class. Adding Extra Work DaysFor participants that would like more independent work time, extra days can be added to any workshop held in Kingston, NY, at a reduced rate of $75 per day. Instruction is not included, but the use of all paints and tools is. Please let us know at the time of registration that you want to add days, so we make sure we have those dates available. Cancellation and Refund PolicyThough rare, if we must cancel a workshop due to insufficient enrollment, you will be notified no later than one month before the workshop is scheduled. In this event your deposit will be returned to you in full, or you will be given the opportunity to transfer it to another session.If you must withdraw from a workshop, and you give us a minimum of one month’s notice, R&F will refund $75 of your initial deposit, retaining a $25 processing fee. We maintain a waiting list, and make every effort to fill every workshop, but often people on the waiting list are unable to attend at the last minute. If you must withdraw after the balance has been paid, R&F will retain the entire amount. If we can replace you in the workshop we will refund the balance, less the $25 processing fee.R&F does not assume responsibility for nonrefundable travel and lodging expenses. We therefore recommend that you wait until your class is confirmed before making these arrangements.
