R&F Handmade Paints Encaustic Medium Bagged Paint, 10-Pound (823)

Description

R&F Encaustic Medium 10-pounds is encaustic paint without the pigment. It is used to extend colors as a way to create transparencies. The damar in this medium helps prevent blooming and take care of the hardness of the film. R&F Encaustic paint is composed of 100% pure pharmaceutical grade beeswax, Singapore-grade damar resin and chemically pure pigments. Beeswax is impervious to moisture making encaustic paint extremely durable. There is not any wish to varnish or give protection to your painting with glass. It is going to not deteriorate, yellow or darken. Encaustic paint is kept molten on a heated palette. It is then applied to an absorbent surface and is fused to create a lot of effects. Encaustic goes from a liquid to solid state and back again in seconds giving you the opportunity to add layers without disrupting your composition. Once the surface has cooled, the paint has reached a permanent finish, but with heat, you’ll be able to revise and rework your painting minutes or years later! This highly versatile medium can also be polished to a high gloss, carved, scraped, layered, collaged, dipped, cast, modeled, sculpted, textured and combined with oil.
