I just posted a new playlist of 17 video clips on our Icarus Art YouTube Channel. It's a condensed, sixty-minute video library of a project called "Mussel Shell" from my 2010 CPSA workshop "Wax and Heat, a Match Made in Heaven".
For my workshop attendees this is a great opportunity to review the techniques learned last summer. For everybody else it's like taking a workshop for free. All voiced-over video clips are available in high definition and come with a downloadable supply list, an outline of the project, and an image of the finished mussel shell.
I hope you all enjoy practicing and/or learning the Icarus technique. You are always welcome to post comments and ask questions either on this blog or on YouTube.
View this playlist on Youtube.

Oh Ester, thank you so much for this post! I subscribe to the icarusart channel on Youtube, so I get notified via email when your (and other channels I’ve subscribed to) post new videos. I had all of them in my email inbox and when I’d click on the links, it said the videos were private. :( Thank you so much for putting this post up, now I can watch the workshop! :D

Thanks, Jill, I was still working on them this morning and they were not supposed to be public. They should be all visible now - let me know if you can view them.

Had to come and tell you these are fun to watch :) Thank you for sharing. Your work is beautiful.
Does the CPSA allow Neocolors in their International Exhibit?

Thank you so much for these wonderful videos…
Is the board used/shown the bigger one of the two you offer?

Thanks, that is good to know. I like to use white Neocolors and wondered about that.

Hi Ester, this is why I love your work the colours are vibrant like an oil painting. I’ve asked for an Icarus board for my birthday, keep your fingers crossed!

Ester, Thank you so much for this fantastic video. It serves as a refresher course for me and certainly has inspired me to get back to the art room after two months of hiatus, when I just seemed to have ‘artist’s block’. Now I’m going back to my flowers, which I love to do with your Icarus board.
Thank you! Thank you!

Hazen, I’m so sorry for posting your comment three months late. I just found it in my spam - I need to check my spam more frequently. I appreciate your positive feedback about my video and I’m glad it’s helped you getting back to your studio.

You are welcome, Ines. Yours is one of several comments I just found in my spam. Sorry for the delay. Regarding your question, the board used in the video is the bigger one.
