Description
Birgit Hüttemann-Holz guides you through the art of hot-wax painting, introducing you to the basics and techniques of encaustic art. You'll learn about materials and supplies, encaustic mediums and coloring agents, and various surfaces to work on. The book presents a range of techniques, from applying hot liquid wax and fusing it with tools like a hot air gun or propane torch, to creating smooth and textured surfaces, scraping and relief imprinting, accretion, and working with palette knives and collages. Detailed photos showcase the full spectrum of encaustic art. For both beginners and experienced artists looking for new techniques, this guide offers inspiration from a gallery section featuring work by eleven top encaustic artists.
