Friday

here is yet another encaustic painting. It measures 4" x 6". This one is a pure fluke...I did a painting that started out as brown and orange and I really didn't like it...so I remelted the wax and this was the result.....amazing what you can do with an iron !!

Thursday 17th

Happy St. Patrick's day to any Irish readers.

Here is an encaustic art painting, measuring 4x6 which is postcard size.

An encaustic painting is made by painting with melted wax. The effects can be stunning.....and you never know what the results will be.......I shall show another one tomorrow

Wednesday

sorry about the wonky picture...the perils of taking pics at 6 AM...lol....

This one was an experiment for me...trying to paint water...not easy....

I still had to have my two obligatory birds in it !!!

A beautiful day in South Wales...sun shining and the windows all open.....the squirrel keep coming in the house for their monkey nuts....aaah sweet...

Tuesday

here is the aceo that I did for the Folksy RED challenge for comic relief (or Red nose day!)

I thought it would make a nice change from doing landscapes and fantasy !!

monday

here is another box canvas painting that I did over the weekend. I love the tiny easels that come with each canvas.

Today is a beautiful sunny day with daffodils blooming in the garden.....hopefully Spring is on its way at last....although there is snow in Scotland.....glad we live down South !!

Sunday

this is a mini box canvas that I finished last night...it is very tiny...just 3.5" x 2.75".....the little easel is tiny too....

A beautiful day here, overlooking the sea. Seems hard to believe that there is SNOW in Scotland !

Saturday

here is another in my encaustic series...this one has the trees decorated with silver wax. The tree was created using a special pen like tool that holds wax in the nib.....
