Mixed Media on Pine
2015
A commission piece for my pal. The surface is a pine tabletop that I found at the hardware store. The designs are all wood burnt (new! for me!), the roses are gouache, the vine spirals are colored pencil, and the silver is metallic paint with a black patina wash. Finally, the whole thing is coated in beeswax, a renaissance method called encaustic that I learned at a workshop. It weighs a TON. It's not really my cup of tea, but I had a lot of fun doing it, and I'm happy to have learned a couple of new things.
