This vibrant pink sky is available! I found great satisfaction in the creation of this work. Email me to see it in person (Toronto friendlies) and maybe even take it home to try it out?! Wouldn’t that be fun?
 
ENCAUSTIC is a Greek word meaning “to heat or burn in” (enkaustikos). Encaustic consists of natural bees wax and dammar resin (crystallized tree sap). I use R&F wax medium, as well as their pigment wax blocks, oil paints and at times pigment sticks. Using a selection of brushes, carving tools and my handy heat gun, I “paint” with the hot wax.
 
My encaustic works are painted onto high quality birch panels and are sold ready to hang (or sit smartly on a book shelf). You may also frame them. Treat an encaustic painting as you would any fine art. Use care hanging, transporting or storing a painting. Consistent Temperature – hang and store at normal room temperatures. Avoid direct sunlight, freezing and extremely hot temperatures; wax will melt at 150°F / 65°C.
