Reach in wax



This 6 x 9 inch encaustic work is really a paper sandwich encased in a wax coating. The wax can be buffed to a more glassy surface. (I didn't do it as fully because of anticipating difficulties photographing). The maps embedded within the work are forest maps. The backside shows the kenaff brown pulp and some of the embossed edges of the inclusions.
