Yes, you can draw. Yes, you can paint. The reason you haven’t been able to isn’t because you’re not creative or talented, it’s because you’ve never learned how. Tap into your creativity. Take an art class or workshop with Kim McNeil.

Intro to Cold Wax Weekly Art Class - Fall 2025
In this 3-week class, you'll learn the basics of using this fun and little-known natural beeswax medium—it's the bee's knees!—and walk away with your very own finished artwork. We'll cover the do's and don'ts of using the medium, demo the use of the medium, discuss how to mix cold wax with oil paint to create vivid colours and transparent glazes, and use various tools to create unique effects.
You'll start the course by painting a study to hone our skills before working on a larger final piece you’ll be proud to take home. Beginners welcome!
