Awww, thank you. I try really hard to make the video interesting and not annoying...but also give enough guidance and encouragement. I am nervous every time I imbed something new into encaustic, but if we don't take risks, we'll never know what may be possible.

Beautiful piece!!! I do love the 2nd piece just a little more ;-) What makes you put more than one layer between each imbedded material? Is it just a matter of looks (more layers of encaustic create more softening of the image) or something more technical? Also, after you cleaned the piece with the coconut oil, would you be able to add another layer of encaustic or would you need to truly clean the piece of the coconut oil residue with something like alcohol? Thank you!

Thanks so much, Heather! When I tried to layer over it, I was not happy with the look. I tried it once haha. I am telling you trial and error happen in my studio daily. But I know that is supposed to be a good thing, right? Yeah, you are right...adding layers softens the image.

@@PABragg yep, trial and error on a daily basis for me too... thanks so much for the info, I'm coming from working with acrylic pouring, resin, watercolor, and woodworking mostly (my channel is mostly acrylic pouring) but I've been wanting to try encaustic for years so now I'm jumping in! Trying to get as much info before I start to help keep daily failures to a minimum, lol...

Great question! The coconut oil removes the excess oil stick residue. You can also use linseed oil, but the coconut oil has no scent and is cheaper. Works great!

i have just discovered coconut oil for this process after learning that linseed oil can spontaneously combust (should have remembered this from high school science). Coconut oil works great and smells good, too! just wondering if you have ever had an issue after using the oil and applying more encaustic? long-term, just wondering what happens to the oil under the medium?

Thanks so much for posting your process. I'm learning encaustics and it sure isn't as easy as it looks. Did you at any point in your work with encaustics try stick soft pastels? That's all I have. They seem to go on fine but are easily wiped away even after burnishing and fusing. I guess I'm going to have to break down and buy some panpastels...
@PABragg
6 жыл бұрын
Yeah, the first few pieces I tried, I blew all the encaustic right off the board haha. Keep practicing and try not to let it discourage you. I wish I would have made a video of all my screw ups. That would probably go viral. :) I have not tried the soft pastels. I have tried Gelatos and they seem to stay put. Because of the cost, I started with the PanPastel earth rustic (I think that's the name) and used that set a lot before buying other colors. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment.

Jackie Cerise well...I haven’t had any problem with it flaking off or anything. Seems to hold it’s shine, too. I am also careful not to hang my encaustic pieces in direct, harsh sunlight.
