"Cognition"
Image size 18" x 18"
Encaustic
I really fought with this painting. My original concept was completely different and I wasn't happy with where it was going. I added different colors thinking, "yeah, this will look really good", and being disappointed again...and again.
The nice thing about encaustic is that I can continue to add wax and it just gets better and better. For this painting, I used thin veils of color as I worked so the previous layers could be seen and added to the final result. I am finally happy with it!
