Encaustic monotype on usu kuchi japanese paper.

28.25x20.50"

Limited edition 1 of 1.

Encaustic monotype is a printmaking process using pigmented beeswax. I work with encaustic paint on a heated metal palette, then lay paper onto the surface to pick up the molten wax. Each work is unique. I often make several lifts, adding and layering marks as the work develops. I may also crop a larger print to find the finished composition.
