Encaustic Collage 2012 Art 4














My theme is nightlife; which my goal was to show in my Encaustic Collage. I tried to portray this with the combination of trees, dark figures in the background, and the moon. I used a textured white piece for the moon a frilly piece of cloth around the moon. Newspaper and magazine pieces. Also used scrap-booking materials. The tree is done through image transfer. Of course bees wax is used for the colors. Things that i like is the tree and the upper corner where you can clearly see that it says people surrounded with the scrap-booking piece. The hard part of this would have to been getting the tree to stand out against everything else. I wish I could have done it without the white behind it.

Lake Pointillism Project I Did Over The Summer!


This is the original picture of the lake taken by my friend Justin L. at his uncle's house!












This is my pointillism piece I made recently from that photograph.

I used oil pastels in this pointillism medium, I one day wont to try to use ink to make an pointillism piece. Any ideas on if this would work or not?
