Encaustic Art Learning How to develop an A5 landscape

How to develop a landscape with Encaustic Art Create and develop an A5 landscape with the Encaustic Art iron onto A5 Painting card. Elaborate it using the Stylus Pro with drawing tip and wire brush head. Scratch off wax colour with the cold metal scribing tool. Basic Steps Load the the iron with wax colours (set at LOW). Apply white wax with some pastel blue, pink and darker cyan blue. Smooth this wax gently onto the card’s top half and look for a pleasing light filled sky. Don’t press hard and don’t overwork this stage. If you have too little wax then add more. With the sky done, load the iron in the curved area with olive green wax and a line of rust brown wax along the curved edge. Slide the iron along the card length in a shallow U shaped movement. Make sure the top iron edge carries wax right across to the far edge of the card, sliding right off if necessary. Add colours that are darker versions of those already used in the sky to the iron. P
