Honey Bowl | Original Encaustic Bee Bowl

$95.00

Karen Canning · 18 cm wide × 10 cm high · One of a kind

A few bees, caught mid-flight. I wanted Honey Bowl to feel like one of those little moments in the garden when a bee passes close enough for you to see the detail in its wings. The bees circle the creamy wax surface, and there’s a warm honey-gold resin interior waiting to be discovered when you look down into the bowl.

At 18 cm wide, it’s easy to find a spot for this small sculpture on a bookshelf, sideboard or coffee table. Give it a little room and you’ll see different bees as you walk past. It’s also a lovely gift for a gardener or someone who always stops to watch the bees.

Medium · Encaustic wax and mixed media
Style · Contemporary figurative sculpture
Display · Freestanding decorative art bowl

What is encaustic wax painting?

Encaustic painting is an ancient art form that uses natural beeswax mixed with damar resin, a tree resin, and pigments to create beautifully layered, luminous artworks. Each layer of wax is applied while warm and then fused with heat. This gives the surface depth and a soft, tactile quality. Every piece is unique, with textures and details that shift as the light catches them.

How to care for your encaustic art

Display Honey Bowl indoors, away from direct sunlight, heaters and extreme heat. Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth. The wax may develop a soft, natural sheen over time. This piece is intended for decorative display.

Shipping for international collectors

I’m delighted to send my artwork to collectors around the world. Shipping costs vary with the packed size, weight and destination. Please get in touch before ordering and I’ll find a reliable shipping option and provide a personalised quote for your location.
