I began using wax 37 years ago, for a different application in the business world, and became proficient in its manipulation. It wasn’t until 2012 that I began to explore encaustic painting, and it was a different animal altogether. Although the wax obeyed its rules of behavior, my rules had to change if I was going to get the effects I desired…and so my love affair with wax began, and is ongoing still.
