Color Wheels

My starting point was to make colorful wheels. 

I'm learning that with encaustics, the starting point ends up being really different from the final result. Things just move so fast with the hot wax melting and spreading and doing unexpected things. 

As a beginner with encaustics, I'm really having to learn to give up control and just roll with it.

  1. I have never tried encaustics, and this is beautiful. Might have to have a go now!

  4. WOW this is gorgeous! You're really getting into this encaustic stuff aren't you? I think your style (I hate that term but you know what I mean) still shines through even via this very different medium. Please keep producing, I'm really enjoying seeing the results. :-)
