Encaustic art! I paint with beeswax. This piece also has oil paints, ink, and a shellac burn. I use canned air, a heat gun, blowtorch, and clay carving tools. I love the way the molten wax and ink do their own thing.

Encaustic painting is molten beeswax with natural tree resin. I use pigments, tiny irons and brushes, heat guns and blow torches. 🔥🐝

An encaustic photo of a peony from last summer. Layers of encaustic medium (molten beeswax and tree resin) fused into the photo and then each petal carved back into the flower.

It’s been a few years since we’ve had pretty snow in Ohio. Can’t wait to add encaustic to these!

#1940’s

This was originally a photograph of a sunset on Lake Erie that I no longer liked. About 10 layers of encaustic medium plus R&F oil sticks later I like it much more.
