JOn, I enjoyed your youtube videos. Very well done. I believe you said that you didn't use laser prints. I wasn't too clear that you used an ink jet printer. Did you? And then, your first wax on your 3/4" ply ... was that your medium? Did you use fluid acrylics to "stain" that board?
I am new to encaustics, and am absorbing what I can from you tube videos like yours. It seems that if I were to continue with encaustics, I need to figure out how to be more cost effective in terms of materials, etc.
I attended Ramapo state College where I studied welded steel sculpture and life drawing, while working full time with a furniture designer / builder. I worked with the company for several years and continued to attend classes at Ramapo and Parsons School of design in NYC. In 1994 I started my art and design company and made original art and furniture for clients throughout NYC and New Jersey. In 1999 my wife, Laurel Bissonette and I opened the Laurel Tracey gallery in Red bank, NJ specializing in contemporary American art. I’m best known for large abstractions incorporating a variety of mediums including iron, stainless steel, encaustic and lacquer.
