encaustic class

inspired by the fall colors of lake placid

and browsing through bridgette guerzon mills blog

i went looking for some leaves to use in class today

i like the effect of layering the leaves

in between several layers of clear wax

which gave it a "fogged" look

detail from the center work

layers of orange , red ,

creme and copper leaf

then the bits of green

and finished off with sienna "wash"
