Daniels room, in Hancock, NH.
The theme is dreamscapes.
This encaustic painting on panel, is the first of the series.
Through the winter, I have been experimenting with new techniques,
always with the bee's wax, colored pigments, India inks,
burnt shellac and carving into the wax.
burnt shellac and carving into the wax.
The carving is a wonderful addition to my paintings.
It reminds me a lot of etching, which I also love.
I used a pigment stick to fill in the grooves.
It creates a relief which adds dimension
and texture to the wax surface.
