Melanie Chalk reviewed: Encaustic Art - What do you want to learn?

"I combined a 2 day workshop with Mel, with a holiday, even staying in her adjoining self catering accommodation. It was great to just walk across the grass to her well equipped studio leaving my husband to potter around in the cabin while I played with wax. Mel was welcoming, enthusiastic and knowledgeable and was free with her advice, sharing her skills and extensive know how gained during her professional work. She is very talented and I came away with enough ideas to set me off when I get home. The days were jam packed with activity and Mick produced lovely lunch. Would thoroughly recommend Mel and her courses."

"Just had two great days working and learning with Mel. We chatted a lot at first and worked out areas of encaustic which suited my needs. Mel is agreat teacher and opened doors to experimention which I am sure will help me evolve my style and work."

"Spent the day with Mel on a recent holiday to Wales. As a mixed media artist with a little experience with encaustic techniques I was looking forward to spending the day playing. Mel was great, she was able to pitch the course to the level of my experience and my interests to ensure that I came away having enjoyed the day and having gained a lot of techniques and ideas to use in my own art. Thanks Mel for a great day"

"What a fantastic day?! My friend and I booked the workshop as we are both creative and outdoorsy so wanted to embrace the creative side of our personalities whilst on an outdoorsy visit to Wales. Mel was fantastic and extremely passionate about her work and the techniques. She was patient and guiding and allowed us to explore the materials as we wanted with support for some of the techniques we could incorporate or at least try to. I had terrible reception and Mel was extremely accommodating throughout. We learnt so much during the day and had a real giggle under Mel's instruction: I would definitely recommend this if you are in the area. My friend and I have very different styles and Mel made sure the course worked for both of us and that questions were answered in terms of 'but I want to do this here... how do I make it do...'. It is everything you are told not to do as a child: melt wax, play with it, create patterns and use an iron for fun! Brilliant: An absolute blast."
