The first collages of this series were finished with clear acrylic medium to seal and adhere the images. Later, while researching wax resist methods for ceramics, I found instructions for mixing encaustic wax. It is a mixture of beeswax and tree resin. The mixture is stronger and more transparent than beeswax alone. It is worked while hot and when cool, it acquires a surface depth and sheen that enhances the light and shadows of the images beneath.
