The Glow of JOY

Title
The Glow of JOY
Artist
Angela L Walker
Medium
Mixed Media - Encaustic Mixed Media Collage On Birch Wood Panel
Description
No matter the struggle
or how great the strife
there's a bit of glow
in every life...
mine is called
JOY!
BEST viewed enlarged (so you can see the background painting underneath the layers of wax painted to make the final encaustic painting)
I created the background of this collage using watercolor crayons and oil paintstixs: it is a mix of painted cloth and paper mounted to wood panel. Then the entire piece was sealed and painted using encaustic medium and paint.
Encaustic painting is the process of using hot wax as your painting and binding medium. I hand dye my own cloth and make/ paint various paper designs to make my collages.

Thanx so much, Lenore. I actually did the foundational painting back when I was preparing to go public with my art at an Art Show and Poetry Night in honor of Josh's birthday last Dec. I finally used the paper to create this encaustic piece... it is soooo special to me.
