I love to paint birds and have always been intrigued by falcons. This falcon is painted over an encaustic background.
Framed size: 15 1/2″ x 12 1/2″ x 2 1/4″ (317.5mm x 393.7mm) with a dark brown, wooden frame. There is no plexi or glass.
With all artwork, please keep out of direct sunlight.
An encaustic painting is achieved by melting wax and varnish over a hot plate and slowing applying it while melting it with a hot gun. It’s very time consuming but rewarding. I then paint my image, with oil paint, on top of the encaustic.
