Melting Wax Laying Gel Beautiful Paper

Yesterday I was channeling Joseph Beuys and his spirit had so much energy in me! I've been making encaustic dictionary pages. ~I don't know why.~ I figure, it's better not to ask the gods too many questions... I have a vision of doing paneled art work, so I'm producing the panels, all in deference to the beauty of the materials I'm working with... I honestly feel my skills are not really up to this task, but then I catch a wave like yesterday and my confidence is boosted. Setting my ego aside, the elements and ingredients I am collecting and adding into the narrative are not my own. )) This is collage. _________________________________________________________________________________________ This iMage "Butterfly Calligraphy".
