Beeswax
I’m behind on my posting of recent art so I thought I throw some pieces up real quick. These are some of the samples that I did for my last Technique Class. We worked with beeswax and the class turned out great. I looked around about 20 mins. before class was over and everyone was still hard at work, totally engrossed in what they were doing. That is a great feeling for a relatively new teacher like me.
This is the first piece I did with beeswax. It was done on an 8×8 canvas panel. I wouldn’t really call it done so maybe I’ll work on it again someday.
I cut pieces of chipboard for my students to work on so I did a couple of pieces here to make sure the surface was good. The chipboard absorbs a lot of wax but it worked great for learning. These two are both 4×4.
I did another piece in my book for this class. I’ll have to post pictures of that one later along with the samples for the previous technique classes.

Hello, I have enjoyed looking at your blog and I’ve put it in my favorites. Your beeswax pieces are lovely. I am in the beeswax group too (lurker b/c very busy) and I’m learning so I can play w/beeswax too!
I look forward to seeing more of your work.
