encaustic class


it was hard to be inside today, it was 27c
but once i got out my boards i was inspired by a class mate
she was painting with blue and the map i used for my background
had some yellow in it so this became my palette for the day
above my finished piece, i used one of my favorite tree photos and
a section from a poem by e.e.cummings
below a detail shot of the texture, you can see part of the
map coming through the wax

  6. I like this piece. Doesn't look like you're keeping up your blog... It would be nice if you got re-inspired and continued. Best of luck ~
