DecoArt’s Wax Effects Acrylic Paints

Discover the Magic of Wax Effects

Get ready to experience something completely fresh and exciting with DecoArt's Wax Effects paint! This innovative, translucent medium allows you to achieve that dreamy, textured encaustic look, but with all the convenience and simplicity of water-based acrylics. It’s the perfect way to add depth and a soft, luminous finish to your artwork without the fuss of traditional encaustic techniques.

Barb and I have been having an absolute blast exploring the creative possibilities with Wax Effects paint. In this week’s Tutorial Tidbit, we’ve been layering tone-on-tone shades to create rich, nuanced textures that give our pieces a captivating, ethereal quality. The translucent nature of the paint lets you build up subtle layers, adding complexity and depth to your work.

We’ve also been experimenting with translucent wet strength tissue paper, incorporating it into our designs for an added layer of interest. The combination of Wax Effects and translucent paper produces a stunning, light-filled effect that’s perfect for mixed media projects, collages, and more.

Whether you have just a few minutes or are ready to dive into a longer creative session, join us for this fun and inspiring tutorial. We’re sure you’ll love discovering how easy and enjoyable it is to work with this unique medium. So grab your supplies and come see how you can transform your art with DecoArt’s Wax Effects paint!
