Exploring Encaustic

Hi All!

Today I thought I would share my continued explorations with encaustic painting. It it so addictive to watch the wax reacting, the colours melting into one another. It is definitely challenging! The medium is unpredictable and hard to control yet so much fun!


For this piece I started with a base of stamped rice paper then experimented adding layers of colour and splashes over the top. It really has a spacey feel to it like a nebula or something and I like how the rice paper still peeks through.



These two miniature pieces are an experiment in using stencils with the wax and also incorporating fabric. I love how these turned out, they are definitely my favourite so far! 

I hope you like how these turned out! I can't wait until I find the time to try some more!

Bye for now xxxx
