Daisies in pink spots is an encaustic wax and mixed media artwork that measures 23 x 23 cm. The artwork showcases three beautifully crafted white daisies with golden centres, each delicately incised to reveal intricate details. The flowers sit on fine wire stems and are displayed in a textured pink spot vase, adding a playful touch to the artwork.

The overall feel of the artwork is whimsical and imaginative, with the textured surface giving the impression of the flowers being alive and full of movement.

The artwork is framed in an oak floating frame, enhancing its elegant and modern aesthetic. The frame allows the artwork to be free-standing or wall-hung, adding versatility to its display options.

Daisies in pink spots is a stunning piece that would make a perfect addition to any contemporary art collection or as a statement piece in any room. Its playful yet refined aesthetic is sure to captivate onlookers and inspire joy in all who behold it.

Encaustic painting is an ancient art form and can be traced back to the 5th century BC. Encaustic wax is a combination of beeswax and an additive to strengthen and raise the melting temperature. Typically damar resin is used though other additives are sometimes used. Layers of molten wax are applied to wooden structures/panels. It has beautiful luminous qualities which can be coloured. The wax can be embedded, collaged, scraped, textured and  polished to a high sheen. Encaustic wax is a natural adhesive and preservative, it is moisture resistant, mildew and fungus resistant and unappetising to insects. Wax paint doesn’t contain solvents or oils so will not darken or yellow with age, it is 100% archival.

Care for Encaustic Wax

Encaustic paint is the most durable form of painting, evidenced by the Faiyum mummy portraits in Egypt. They have survived over 2000 years without cracking, flaking or fading.

Do not hang fine art in direct sunlight, encaustic wax in particular should always feel cool to touch. Encaustic wax is stable from 4 - 49 degrees C. Use a soft lint free cloth to gently buff if it becomes dull looking, this happens during curing time (around 6 months) It should always look shiny. After that time it will retain it’s polished look. At this point it will repel dirt and dust more readily.

Properly looked after your Encaustic wax painting will last many life times.
