Encaustic


Encaustic painting , also known as  hot wax painting , involves using heated  beeswax  to which colored pigments  are added. The liquid or paste is then applied to a surface—usually prepared wood, though  canvas and other materials are often used. The simplest encaustic mixture can be made from adding pigments to beeswax, but there are several other recipes that can be used—some containing other types of  waxes  damar resin  linseed oil , or other ingredients. Pure, powdered pigments can be used, though some mixtures use oil paints or other forms of pigment.
