Finished off another one in my Bee series this last weekend. This one is 15 by 22 inches in a black float frame.
I started with a cyanotype using flowers and weeds from my yard and garden onto watercolor paper.
I then glued it to a cradled wood panel and added several layers of encaustic medium. I colored some of it in with pan pastels and then decided to paint them with encaustic instead. I added some ferns using a stencil and then added the honeycomb/beeswax with a stencil also.
The bees were done with a hot pen with a very fine tip - from a photo printed onto tissue paper to use as an under drawing.
I added a few touches of pan pastels on top of the honeycomb.
Have great week!!!
