Pine Trees and Rust Landscape, Original Art, Wax Encaustic Mixed Media Collage

This original art piece features pine trees painted on a background of rusty paper, creating an abstract landscape effect. The collage incorporates vintage and rusty metal pieces, layers of encaustic (beeswax) medium, and oil pigments. The 4-inch by 4-inch wax encaustic painting is framed in a 6 x 6 birch frame in midnight blue. A hanger made of an old hardware piece is attached.

The encaustic wax encases the images, and each new layer lets the layers below show through. Many of my pieces incorporate little found artifacts like keys, bits of rusty hardware, and jewels, salvaged from attics, barns, and basements, well loved over time. Encaustic collage pieces offer a wonderful depth, texture, and tactile nature for the viewer to enjoy.

On cradled birch board, signed, ready for hanging.
