encaustic class

------
i've been watching the trees and my street change colours all week
so with a large supply it was an easy decision on what to do in class
lots of layers of wax with leaves in between
a photo transfer on top and then a few more leaves to finish it off
-------


this one i decided to add a little sienna oil paint to finish it off

    Reminds me of school days where we had to collect all the leaves and "press" them between layers of WAX PAPER. Hmmmmm... I loved the hunt for all the different leaves. Early encaustic work?

    You continue to surprise me with your clever use of elements.

    I like the autumn leaves layered with the wax, very nice piece.
