Michele Messenger
Encaustic Painting
Michele is an enthusiastic encaustic artist, eager to share all she knows (and doesn’t know) about this most flexible art practice. She fell in love with encaustic after meeting Victoria Eubanks at an art show, taking her classes, then volunteering as her assistant when Victoria taught at Art Students League of Denver (ASLD). She also organized and room-mothered the encaustic open studios at ASLD.
Michele has been producing and selling her graphic and whimsical artwork since 2015. She says her favorite part of working with wax is the endless directions it can go and how satisfying and forgiving the entire process is. Michele is a freelance graphic designer and finds painting with wax to be a perfect complement to her design work and vice versa! She is represented by NKollectiv in Denver, loves the summer art fairs, teaches encaustic at Outside the Box Studio (Littleton) and ASLD (teens) is wildly excited about teaching new classes at Prism Arts Workshop!
