Encaustic Class

I have a new respect for Encaustic painting. As you can see I tried to control it. Which you cannot!

We did a burn technique on this. You put varnish on with a rag and then set it on fire. That's where you ge the shinny dark color.

There are about 6+ l ayers on this. The more layers the more you hide things underneath, so you have to be very careful.

It was a lot of fun and I'd like to try it again.
