The products you will find in my store are the tools and materials that I use most often within my own art practice: unique high-quality contemporary Sumi-e brushes, and other artist tools that work well with encaustic, encaustic monotype, cold wax, gel printing, and mixed media applications.
Hello Elizabeth - are you taking a print from this? I sense there's a longer video somewhere with the finished result on it, maybe?! It's a fabulous effect either way. 🩶
It's true, they aren't inexpensive, that being said they are all totally handmade for purpose and they work really well. They are made for people that appreciate craftsmenship and uniqueness, and beautiful mark-making. They aren't for everyone ❤
You can cut cardboard with a utility knife. And seal it with acrilic mefium and it will work fine. Either time consuming to make them or resourse consuming. You can use a silicone kitchen basting tool for texture similar to her "brushes".
This is encaustic Monotype - which is a print that is made on a heated aluminum plate. Once the image has been created on the plate, a print can be pull with paper
This process is encaustic monotype - which is encaustic paint on a heated palette. The black is carbon paint, the lighter areas, are the reductive marks of taking away the paint from the Aluminum plate. No white, just the black carbon paint.
This is the best ever info on the use of this torch. Better than the company. I had not used it in awhile and couldn’t remember how to remove it from butane container. This is the only directions I found how to do it. So simple but I had forgotten and didn’t want to break it. Thanks❤❤❤
Incredible! It's ironic to me yo see this today after I made a mental note to myself recently to research the purpose and importance of paint brushes. I was certain my knee jerk rejection of the consideration of purchasing an expensive brush was not made based on facts. And I need to be knowledgeable about art that I spend a lot of time doing and studying. Beautiful piece!
Enjoyed watching your process ... Have used a silicone bar-b-que brush since I started pouring acrylics. It's enlightening to see others developing silicone tools and expanding the fluid art supplies and materials. Your pieces have great dimension and design features!
