The final wax encaustic i created was a landscape of a garden in a field. I used lace for the tree's and the flowers to bring out the shape and color of the imbedded texture. The most difficult part of making a wax encaustic was blending the wax colors together to make it look like the colors were organic. The colors in the sky almost look as though it is the top of an ocean and the green tree's are seaweed under the ocean surface. This piece could be interpreted in different ways, but my intention was to create a landscape scene with a garden. Using the wax to make artwork was actually very interesting to me to see how the colors blend and how objects, pieces of magazines, letters, stamps, and other techniques could be used in this type of artwork.
