A friend of mine, Karin Wells is a fantastic classical artist. As well as traditional oil painting she also uses a medium and technique referred to as encaustic painting. It is a mixture of pigment and beeswax. It is a very involved process requiring much more patience than I possess. The process creates paintings of incredible beauty that look as if they were created by Renaissance artists. The attached painting is an example of encaustic painting.
She is also an incredible portrait artist.
Below are links to her web sites (she has several) and her blog site where you may see other examples of her work.
The link to her blog will give some background into the methods involved in the encaustic process.
