fun with encaustic

A group of us went to visit the new studio of artist Alissa Warshaw.
She works in variety of mediums, and she was generous enough to
show us the process for one of them, encaustic.

Her pretty birds.


Beautiful & colorful blocks of wax for encaustic. Just looking at them
makes one happy!

melting wax on a hot plate

put a paper on it, and..
voila.

They're good first attempts I thought!!

Thanks so much Alissa for having us over.
We had so much fun!!!
