I have finished my second piece. I was a little disappointed in the color of the wax. I utilized the natural color of the beeswax, but I think I need to stick with bleached wax. I was hoping the yellow wax would add a bit of a Sepia tone to the work, but that was not the case. I bought bleached wax today and will continue on with that. I have been using images of architectural structures or sculptures with the Pan Pastels, but I have decided to switch it. I will try a small piece using the Pan Pastel for a graffiti/mural piece and incising the sculpture or structure over the top for the third piece. For now, I like the process, but I am still working on figuring out cohesive compositions. I also want to include the recommendation that Lindsay B. recommended with areas incomplete. I think I will try that for my third piece.


I love the drawing on top of the wax, it adds a lot of dimension! I really need to try this technique!
I agree with Jenn- the drawing on top of the wax really does add to the piece! It could be interesting seeing how else you can utilize that type of technique to bring out specific parts of the image.
