Hi, we are Julio and Candice

We’ll introduce you to the world of egg tempera and guide you through the essentials to kickstart your journey. You’ll explore the key materials, learn how to craft your own paints, and discover techniques for storing them across multiple sessions. We’ll show you how to lay a solid foundation with a strong underdrawing, speed up your process with an ink underpainting, and layer tempera to achieve vivid colors and expressive depth.

You’ll also learn how to blend and turn forms in egg tempera by building your values through layering. Plus, we’ll walk you through how to create your own painting surfaces and how to identify store-bought options that suit the medium perfectly—all designed to boost your confidence and growth in egg tempera.
