learning about texture
we decided to experiment with food
rice, pasta, sesame seeds, rosemary and loose tea
it was fun adding these elements to the wax
some embedded and some on top
i painted the the whole surface with a taupe wax
then added in some green, ochre and browns
here is a close up of the black tea
added on top
mostly seeds
----------------
my second canvas was more mono chromatic
you can really see the food
Except for the wax, totally edible art!
ReplyDeleteGreat textures Nancy!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful and intriguing. Looks like it's a good idea to play with your food.
ReplyDeleteOh my!!! This is absolutely fantastic, stunning and gorgeous!!! Who would have thought tea could be so inviting outside the teapot. I'm just getting started with encaustic and this is a huge inspiration!!!
