Encaustic with bamboo framed

Encaustic painting is a method that dates back to ancient times. "Encaustic" comes from Greek, meaning "to burn in". Layers of pigmented beeswax are applied to the painting and fused with a torch. Bamboo pieces were attached.

While encaustic paintings are durable, as with any fine art, they should not be exposed to direct sunlight or heat.

This painting is 6x6 inches including frame.
