This shot reminds me of a wax encaustic piece I did in Inuvik at the Arts Festival in 2008. That’s where an artist has many pots of hot melty wax. Each pot of wax is colored with pigments of the artist’s choice. A brush applies the wax in blobs and strokes to a piece of wood, then a contraption, which was likely parented by a blow torch and a hair dryer, blows hot air over the surface and melts the colors together to net a very impressionist effect. Of course, this photo looks much better than my first attempt at wax encaustics. WAAAY better.

Reminds me of when I was little and would lay under the Christmas tree and look up through the lit braches… all fuzzy and gorgeous.
