ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL ENCAUSTIC ARTISTS
The International Encaustic Artists (IEA) is a professional artists’ organization
that seeks to raise the level of excellence in fine art encaustic work by providing global
information exchange and raising interest about encaustics in the art world and with the
general public.
We offer regular group meetings where members share new information on techniques and
exhibit opportunities and exchange information on the development of careers as individuals and
as a group. Membership will provide access to online forums, mailing list, listing on the IEA website,
inclusion in a jpg registry, invitations to display work in members-only shows, and the
opportunity to achieve Signature Member status after being juried into three IEA sponsored
shows. As IEA holds retreats and other gatherings, members will be invited to events which may
not be open to the public. Other IEA events and exhibitions will be specifically geared towards
the general public.
The International Encaustic Artists (IEA) is a relatively newly formed organization, the seeds of
which began the summer of 2005 as the West Coast Encaustic Artists. It is an official 501(c)
California Non-Profit Organization and already includes over 75 members. Based on the enormous interest
and demand, the organization changed its focus in late 2006 from a regional effort to international.
