I enjoy creating whimsical and unique artwork from my home on the Shores of Georgian Bay in Collingwood Ontario. My work is a combination of India ink and encaustic wax, which is an ancient painting medium made from bees wax and tree resin. The wax is melted down and then brushed onto a wood cradle board. Each layer must be fused together using a torch and each piece has approximately 8 layers of wax. The end result is a porcelain-like finish.
