Encaustic Painting, sometimes known as hot wax painting, involves the use of heated beeswax mixed with pigments. This melted wax is then applied to a surface, typically wood painting panels, using brushes or palette knives. As the wax cools, it solidifies, creating a durable and luminous finish. This technique allows for a range of effects, including layering, carving, and embedding other materials into the wax for added texture and depth.
