Reviews

"I got to see the very first copy and it's wonderful...and....comes with a DVD. Daniellas art with wax is so interesting and so different and you can learn all her tips and tricks...of which there are MANY...in her book." - Suze Weinberg Blog

"I don't usually do this, but I am about to gush over a new technique book. The Encaustic Studio: A Wax Workshop in Mixed-Media Art by Daniella Woolf is simply the best, most comprehensive, and most inspiring book on encaustic art techniqueshave ever seen--and a video comes with it, to boot."b- Cate Prato, online editor, ClothPaperScissors.com
