encaustic class

this months class turned out to be very productive

once i finished the first project i realized i had lots of time to create more

 

inspiration from the farm

details of the texture

pretty in pink

i've been influenced by spring and my friend carmi

to create some pink jewelry

working with products from dazzle-it

i created this faux suede bracelet and earrings

 



manipulating flat leather from metal complex

neo chain from dazzle-it

you can find all these products at john bead



powertex and stoneart

now that I have had some time playing with powertex I finally got a chance to

take it to the next level, adding stoneart

supplies used, styrofoam , cardboard, plaster head , powertex and stoneart

after adding a layer of powertex it's as simple as adding the stoneart

gently rubbing to create texture

after several layers i was happy with the results

to highlite the stoneart I used Bister (a water based patina)

I just love the texture it creates

to finish it off I added a little white to really make the texture "pop"

encaustic class

 

sometimes it just happens!! that's what I love about encaustic

 

and I love the texture it creates

 

wire doodle necklaces

sometimes twisting wire is just like doodling

coming up with shapes just happen and no two look alike

adding beads just finishes them off
