Hi Mo,

Thanks for good video. Can I paint over anything e.g. acrylic or oil or objects stuck to canvas?

If I paint this onto a canvas cotton what will happen to fabric?  If I place masonite behind the canvas will this be a better way of doing encaustic i.e. a better surface?

Regards

Joanne

Hi Mary glad you the video. I was having a really wild hair day that day and I didn't realise it was that mad till I was editing the video.

Fantastic Mo...love your experimentation and taking a method such as encaustic and making it your own! ;) Brilliant

Mo...I have used bees wax with a Kitska...like what is used for Ukranian eggs...and I use a cheese grater to get the wax into small enough pieces to fit the tiny container...don't freeze the wax but do this right out of the package when the wax is juat a bit soft like cheese :-). I use the smallest holes but you could use the larger holes to make it go faster.

[mogodbeer]

Wow I would like to see you doing that it sounds really interesting.

[artsycalgal]

I had read about the encaustic wax mixture but had never seen it prepared or used. What a great effect you got with the heat gun. Can't wait to see Part 2 :-)

Fabulous video, Mo!!!

[melanianspots]

nice one Mo, I have not heard of those materials before, I'm intrigued

[mogodbeer]

thanks melissa, it really is fun. I am doing 3very large panels at the moment and it is taking a long time to build up the layers but I think they will look cool in the end.
