ENCAUSTIC ART

Encaustic art is a unique and ancient technique that involves painting with wax. This wax is a blend of beeswax and damar resin (a natural tree sap that acts as a hardening agent. In creating encaustic art, molten wax is applied to a surface, usually a wood board or wood board with a photograph adhered to it. Each layer is carefully heated with a torch or heat gun to fuse it with the one beneath, creating a luminous, textured surface that is rich in depth and detail.

The beauty of encaustic art lies in its versatility and the way it captures light, giving the artwork a three-dimensional quality. The wax can be sculpted, carved, and layered with other materials allowing for endless creative possibilities. Encaustic paintings are durable and long-lasting, and their rich texture or glossy shine make them a captivating addition to any art collection.

*I am currently accepting commissions for custom artwork. Custom commissioned pieces allow you to bring a personal touch to your space, tailored to your preferences in size, color, and style.
