In the Garden Celtic and with the custom hardwoodThis encaustic painting features a cluster of bright orange poppies against the backdrop of a classic hymn, In the Garden. It is comprised of multiple layers of clear and pigmented wax resulting in a sculptural, multi dimensional work. An image transfer is encased within the wax layers, and pastel and ink were added to render fine details as the layers were added. A custom blend of beeswax and damar resin adds a translucency to give the artwork a glow
