Thanks so much!

[@lizsganga8440]

Beautiful!! Can’t wait to see your next step!

[@PamelaCaughey]

There really is no next step ;) For me this is a spontaneous drawing medium; the paper is very thin and I like to do one pass for the most part.

[@lulabelle33]

Thanks for this look at tgr encaustic process. So interesting. Your results were lovely and intriguing

[@PamelaCaughey]

Many thanks for your comment!

It's beautiful!

[@PamelaCaughey]

Many thanks! I share my encaustic monotypes on my website: pamelacaughey.com/pages/encaustic-monotype-gallery-3

[@ivywreden6330]

Wow how cool. I have done a small plate. Would love to know about your “4 Roland hot boxes

[@PamelaCaughey]

They were designed by the marvelous Paula Roland - I believe Vent-a-fume now sells them - please look them up!

[@patrialeeds893]

Love your giant hot box. Very tribal looking. Was that a pigment stick you were using?

[@PamelaCaughey]

Hi Patria - actually I am using monotype waxes I made myself :)

[@meretehov8052]

Oh yes, that is exactly what I want to try this spring, so thank you for this super inspiration! Just wondering, when you make your own monotype waxes, do you try to make them thicker, or are you adjusting the heat so that the paint doesn't float out of place so easily. I've had some fluidity issues you see and your paint looks stiffer in a way 🤔😅🥰

[@PamelaCaughey]

I make most of my own monotype waxes so I can use approximately 1:1 pigment to beeswax - sometimes I use regular encaustic waxes, too :) Thanks Merete!!

[@meretehov8052]

Thank you so much dear Pam! That explains the thicker consistency, need to try my pigmenta the next time 🤓🙏🎨❣️

[@jennrowsell7868]

❤ it! 🤔 so when you work on a light box, no extra heating is required? It’s finished?

[@PamelaCaughey]

It can be-there are many ways to work with this medium-I do usually do just one layer as it is very freeing and I compose on the hot plate!

[@midgejohnson9586]

I purchased a Roland Hot Box. I’m so excited. I am a beginner in this medium. Curious if the print can then be embedded w additional marks such as pen (dip pen/India ink). Is that feasible, or would anything added require fusing? (I know enough not to try fusing paper based prints😅. ) thank you.

[@PamelaCaughey]

Oh that is very exciting! I think you will LOVE it!!

[@sylviegasser]

I am a regular viewer of your art. I'm interested in how this hotplate is cleaned after work? how to present these waxy images? these pictures probably won't last on wood or other paper? Thank you!

[@PamelaCaughey]

Hi Sylvie- I actually mount the prints on panel when the wax is not too thick; if thick, then these are framed behind glass with a shadow box as I like this appearance :)

[@sylviegasser]

@@PamelaCaughey thank you so much ,for your tipps! And Mandy greatings from Österreich!

[@sylviegasser]

Many

[@printingonfeltwithlindseyt4579]

how doyou frame an encaustic monoprint? as wax is hard to stick to things? thanks

[@PamelaCaughey]

I usually mount in panel with Liquitex matte medium which works if your wax is not too thick and lots of paper is still exposed 😊

[@bonnyvondolores2647]

do you list your materials somewhere?

[@PamelaCaughey]

Not yet; I will likely have a course soon - you can look at my online courses at www.ArtandSuccess.com - click on courses - all my courses have supply lists ;)

[@johnmorgan5495]

And voila ! A load of squiggles on some paper !

[@PamelaCaughey]

Absolutely - just like handwriting ;)

[@janhuizer5382]

Hi Pam, the result of this large painting gave me this WOW response, so well done and free. Are there instructions on making a heat box to be found? The fine swirling lines, they almost look like a grayish background, were these the result of the disks you used at the end, the ones covered with foil?
