This is a painting I have been working on for a while. I am almost finished. My inspiration for the carving was huge pepper tree across the street. I still am planning on adding red berries with the hot pen.

Carved encaustic
I got my Internet back Wednesday. 12 days without was frustrating.

I finally got the layering luminosity on the bottom that I wanted. Many layers with clear medium between. I also rubbed on some oil stick then covered it with medium.

Your painting is gorgeous! I was filled with warmth and wonder when I saw your beautiful wax! The layering is so lovely and the carving is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThank you. This one is bringing me back the "dead space" I was in after the opening of the November show.
