sun burst by Lynda Crossland

Thanks for the comment on Scruffy Buffy, Lynda. looked up your gallery and this is gorgeous...swirling and curling and full of colour. I've seen it done and it's a fascinating technique, isn't it!

Luscious colours. I did a few things with Karat Liqua, but it was taken off the market and I don't think I can be bothered to go to all the trouble that true Encaustic wax painting involves. But this is a great result.

Fantastic burst of colour and movement :-)

Thank you all for your comments, I love to do Encaustic because it allows me not to think, yes I have to pick the colour wax to melt on the iron but after that it is just a case of letting my arm/hand swish the iron about until I like what I see. It is not like doing a detailed drawing then colouring it in.

Very uplifting, full of life.
