Encaustic painting, also known as hot wax painting, involves using heated beeswax to which colored pigments are added. The liquid/paste is then applied to a surface—usually prepared wood, though canvas and other materials are often used. You’ll take home an artwork on wood that can be displayed in your home. this is a really exciting medium and the possibilities and combinations are endless
