Encaustic wax painting

This was my very first attempt at wax painting. I have made many random designs with wax in the past but i wanted to create a landscape. I know i have a long way to go but i don't think it's too bad.

  1. Not too bad!! It is a brilliant effort for a first attempt. It truly does look like a gorgeous landscape Nelle. I love how you even got some shading in and the sky is amazing - well done to you. Hugs, Anne x

  2. Hi Nelle...........I have to say that this looks amazing !!! I love the texture and depth you have created. I have never tried this technique but have watched in wonder at craft fair demos.

    Love your shelves below and other altered items

  4. This is fabulous. Have you tried making hollyhocks with the tip of the iron dipped in dark pink wax and flicked upwards? It's very effective.

    Looking forward to seeing more
