Encaustic painting unique art

Encaustic is an ancient Greek art using wax and resin. Its a very time consuming and elaborate process which creates a very unique piece. For this painting I used a mix of wax and resin, paper and pigments for a layered look with touches of gold. Not to mention a blowtorch. Created to honor the memory of my Grandfather as well as all service members. I am a local artist who specializes in paper works, encaustic, acrylic and upcycled wood. 10"×10"
