Icarus Art on YouTube
Our YouTube Channel is now operational. We have uploaded some basic clips that introduce the Icarus Technique. All videos from Ester's CPSA workshop "Wax and Heat, a Match Made in Heaven" will be gradually uploaded in the next several months. Artists who couldn't attend the workshop will have the opportunity to view them. Icarus Art's YouTube Channel can also be accessed from our new "Video" tab on the top right of the Icarus Art Website or from Ester's blog.

Icarus Board Demonstrations
Sherri Van Schaick wrote to us on October 29: "Desiree Mansell and I gave our demo to our art club this morning, we didn't expect so many people to stay after the meeting to watch... Many members said it was the best demo ever. We had so much fun. I did the technical stuff and showed basic cool to warm to cool techniques. Desiree wowed them with the speckles on rocks and stars in the sky and did a monotype allowing anyone who wanted to come up and apply different colors to the piece..."
Thank you Sherri and Desiree!
Call For Artists to Teach the Icarus Technique
We have received a request from the Peninsula School of Art, in Fish Creek, WI, for artists interested in teaching a workshop on the Icarus Technique in 2011. For more information, please contact Karen Becker (Director of Programs).
Gary Greene's New Book
Gary Greene's latest book, The Ultimate Guide to Colored Pencil, is now available for sale online or at your local bookstore. The Icarus Drawing Board is mentioned on page 58 and 59.
Affiliate Program
We have a new marketing program to promote the Icarus Technique. We are looking for accomplished artists who have an affinity for the technique and would like to demonstrate it at their own pace. If you are interested, please contact us and we'll be glad to discuss the details.
