Blue Gem

$150.00

4x12” Original painting on 1.5 cradled wood panel. Encaustic Mixed Media - beeswax painting with hand pulled prints incorporated in-between the layers of wax creating this abstract gem.

Encaustic is a technique that involves using heated beeswax to which colored pigments are added. The heated wax is then applied to a surface of prepared wood & layers of wax are built up. Over time the wax will cure to a hard finish which repels dust. If your piece builds up a cloudy appearance give it a soft rub with the a soft lint-free cloth to give it a shine. Hang out of direct sunlight.
