ARTIST MICHAEL DAVID DEMONSTRATES THE ENCAUSTIC PROCESS

[@daviddewitt9365]

To the naysayers below, you have not seen this kind of work up close, obviously. The depth of the wax floats things in the air between the layers, and the color and texture of it is mesmerizing. These videos do not reveal what the naked eye sees. It is quite stunning in person ...

Thanks for the video, but no primer was added before the encaustic gesso?

[@samradja5275]

Brilliant piece of art..!!!

[@firehead4]

In the vid he says he does NOT paint in encaustic so this is just wax with no encaustic medium...not sure about the painting's durability if that's the case

I absolutely love your work, it's gorgeous.

Too much waste of material. I hate to waste not because i’m Stingy because less is more.

[@pixelpiratepo]

I think they can collect the wax runoff and reheat it.

[@laurenlentini917]

LOL.

What the hell is this BS. A child could pour a liquid over something. It’s just horrible.

[@tobflipped]

On top of talking a bunch of bullshit, I wouldn't call him an encaustic artist, or even an artist for that matter.

WORTHLESS. COMPLETELY WORTHLESS AND RIDICULOUS.

[@peterbond12]

I’m all for encaustic but this is bollocks !

[@nostri9419]

this is not art. Decoration at best.
