Encaustic Playtime

Image
It's been many years since I dug out my encaustic waxes to play but lately I've been hearing them call my name.  It was a rainy day yesterday and I decided it was the perfect time to play. These are all done with encaustic wax blocks and an encaustic iron.  I've had mine for years, but I went searching the internet and found this distributor here in the United States.  http://www.encausticart.us/main.sc I don't have but about a dozen colors and some of the blocks are getting small, so I know I'll be putting together an order soon! These are done on Encaustic Card  and then sealed with and Encaustic Sealer both of which are available on their website, along with the iron I used. Sorry I didn't take any step-out pictures.  I was having so much fun I forgot until I was all finished playing.  OOPS!! I call this one Stormy Sea ahhhh....the joys of owning a cat.  I see I managed to get a cat hair in it.  Sigh...
