Encaustic (wax) Paintings

This past month students have been working on Encaustic Paintings using different techniques of applying wax to a canvas board.  They had a chance to try, hot plate, candle, hot iron, and a hot pot with brushes.  I heard that some people have interesting effects with a hair dryer as well.  We used crayons and paraffin was for our base.
