R&F : Encaustic (Wax Paint) : Starter Kit

Encaustic is a beeswax-based painting medium that is worked with heat. It can be used as a luminous traditional painting medium, but it also has the potential to obscure the boundaries between mediums like no other art material, resulting in works that are just as much about painting or sculpture as they are about photography, drawing, printmaking, installation or a variety of craft techniques. Artists of all kinds are discovering its unifying potential, unique properties and versatility. This set includes: 5 Vibrant encaustic colours in 40ml, Titanium White, Cadmium Yellow Light, Quinacridone Red, Ultramarine Blue and Cadmium Green Pale. This set also includes 2 x Flat 5x7" Ampersand Encaustic bord, soy wax for clean-up, 2 x Palette cups 2 x 1" hake brushes, R&F Basic Encaustic Manual and a colour chart.
