Encaustic and Pottery
Encaustic is pigmented wax paint. The author describes how she uses encaustic paints to create rich and sculptural surfaces on her ceramic art. Pottery is perfectly suited to receive hot wax pigments. Ceramic wall art is another opportunity for encaustic painting. If you make nonfunctional clay art, this little essay will tell you how to apply an encaustic "glaze." Soft and waxy, the surfaces resemble matt glazes and can be applied to ordinary oxidation fired pottery to create unusual surface interest.
