More beeswax collage

I’m finding this to be a delightful medium to work with.  The melted beeswax (I use a small crockpot) gives off a wonderful scent.  The collage has a gentle glow and subtle depth and softness.  The fish (copyright-free images) were printed on a color copier (inkjet prints do not work with this method).

Coin Lost in the River, No. 2  ( a Zen koan)                                                                               beeswax collage on canvas, 8″ x 10″
