Ocean encaustics - 2

 Hallo,
   2 more paintings in my latest series. Both of these are 11 inches wide by 14 inches tall.
They start with a base of 4 layers of encaustic and then a layer of oil sticks. After that are multiple layers of shellac with mica powders (burned in) and pan pastels with an occasional layer of clear encaustic.
  I added some black ink at one point and wasn't really happy with it so they both got another layer of shellac and pan pastels and a final layer of clear encaustic. Some of the ink still shows but it adds another layer of interest....
  The top 3 pics are the right hand painting in progression - the 4th pic are the 2 together - and the last 3 pics shows the left hand painting in progression.
  I finished off the sides in black encaustic.
All for today - Take Care
    Tera
