Media: The encaustics are done on encausticbord (by ampersand) which is a prepared hard board, 1/8" in thickness.
Size: 7x5 in
$100 for UNFRAMED piece.
$150 for FRAMED piece. This is an encaustic of an iron fence I came across in Jerome, Arizona which was casting shadows on the wall behind it. This piece incorporates burnt shellac and a toner transfer into the wax. I have also used copper embossing powder which gives a shimmer to parts of the shellac but unfortunately doesn't show up in the photograph.(Encaustic is a process in which you paint with melted wax, fusing each layer together. When polished it gives a luminescence not seen in other mediums.)
