This encaustic wall art is unique and earth friendly! Encaustic is a wax-based paint made of beeswax, resin, and pigment. It is applied while in a molten state onto the wood and fused with a torch.
The background of this piece is smooth with very little color applied so that the wood can still be seen in most areas. The image of the tree is textured. This piece has 2 branches coming out on the left side and three on the right. This large, heavy piece of wood is irregularly shaped and measures approximately 38.5 inches tall, 13 inches wide, and 3.25 inches deep. Wire hanger on back for easy hanging.
The wood used in this piece was salvaged from a local resident. The wood substrate has been reinforced with wood glue.
Care of encaustic art:
Gently wipe every 3 months with a soft cotton cloth to dust and restore shine. Do not place in direct sunlight or store in extremely hot (hot car) or cold temperatures (garage in winter). Do not place it outside.
