Encaustic Wax paintings are rarely seen in New Zealand. Based on ancient techniques first developed by Greeks, Romans and Egyptians, encaustic painting was made popular by artists such as Diego Rivera and Jasper Johns.
Traditional paint is not used but rather up to 50 layers of pigmented molten beeswax and tree resin which are fused together with flame, hardened, cured and buffed to a glossy sheen. The result is a texture unlike any other artwork that can be experienced on a tactile level - seen, touched, felt and even smelt.
Framed in an Oak wooden box frame, ready to hang
