Textural Encaustic Wonders Just Arrived from Susan Wallis

We love these two small encaustic pieces brought in this afternoon by Toronto born artist Susan Wallis.

Encaustic painting is the process when coloured pigments are added to hot beeswax, then applied to the painting surface (wood panel and occasionally canvas). The effect is textural and warm with a very organic feel.
