Wonder ------------------------------ Print

Inspired by the hope of the Christmas season, the figure was completely from imagination and the scene as well. I found the pose most natural and the balance in this to appeal so much to my inner aesthetic. As I formed the layers of wax one at a time, with each pass of color, I grew more excited at the prospects. When I reached the final dark brown/black phase and was able to crinkle it up into a ball, it made me nervous, but I was counting on the technique to work of course, and it did. After the final ironing I couldn't believe the depth that was achieved. Definitely doing more of these. Same as fabric Batik, but on paper. Really wonderful.
