Watching: The Atomic Brain (1963)

Art Desk: A textured layer of gorgeous celadon green wax. The stark portrait is taking shape.

Art Desk: The final encaustic pour! I will leave the uneven layers of poured wax. But I’m undecided if I need to carve out a divet.
Watching: Home for the Holidays (1972)

Art Desk: Digging progress! And the inevitable playing/arranging of paint scraps.
Watching: High Sierra (1941)

Art Desk: Dig! Dig! Dig! I have to stop myself from going overboard on the excavation. So I’m having a go at other encaustic pieces.
