This encaustic beeswax artwork is a vibrant and dynamic landscape painting showcasing a dramatic sky at dusk or dawn. The upper portion features swirling dark blue and indigo clouds, with intricate textures and a sense of movement. Below, a bright yellow and orange horizon blends seamlessly into the darker sky, creating a striking contrast that emphasizes the transition between day and night. Silhouetted against this colorful backdrop is a line of dense, jagged trees, rendered in textured black wax, which separate the sky from a reflective body of water beneath. The water mirrors the vivid colors of the sky, with pink and purple hues rippling across its surface. A textured ripple effect was crafted by scraping back some wax in the water portion of the scene. The overall effect evokes a powerful and atmospheric natural scene filled with energy and contrast.
Introducing Vicki’s new line of encaustic pieces! Encaustic is a mix of beeswax, natural damar tree resin and pigment, layered on a birch cradle board. Each layer is fused using heat to make a durable surface once it has cured. Much like needle-felted wool, encaustic is wonderful for achieving pronounced texture and depth. Vicki’s use of saturated colour, enhanced texture and sweeping movement carries over nicely to this beautiful artform.
This original encaustic painting was hand-crafted with encaustic medium and pigment stick on a birch cradle board.
Artwork dimensions are 20 × 41 cm (8 × 16”)
