The Encaustic paintings, consists of natural bees wax and dammar resin (crystallized tree sap). The medium can be used alone for its transparency or adhesive qualities or used pigmented. Heat is used throughout the process, from melting the beeswax to fusing the layers of wax. The encaustics in this collection use various techniques combining mediums such as inks, pastels, photo transfers, and emulsion lifts on cradled wood panels. Many of these are from the Biltmore Estate, a favorite source for my tree collections.
All paintings available framed or unframed. Inquire for pricing. On display at Pink Dog Creative 344 Depot St. Suite 101 Asheville, NC .
