"Misty Ridge" Encaustic Monotype

• 2.5 x 3.5
• Framed, ready to hang or place on bookcase

This current piece is made using the print making process of encaustic monotype. Each print is completely unique and cannot be replicated. These are made by creating a reverse image in pigmented beeswax melted onto a heated aluminum plate. Paper pressed onto the plate absorbs the wax image. I often overprint multiple times until I am satisfied. Prints are then mounted onto board and finished with multiple layers of encaustic medium (beeswax and damar resin). Each successive layer is fused with a torch or heat gun. - Susana
