The work seen here is my progress on one piece and another work started on Masonite. Each encaustic I am starting on Masonite. I have tried both the textured and smooth side. These pieces are test pieces for the final method I will be using for my summer work. Out of the four images, the one image that possess the teapot with layers of wax is the farthest I have been able to get. Each piece is about 8 by 10 inches. They take me quite a bit of time because of the methodic process. I intend on cover that image next and then carving into the wax.
