Description
Broken Mask is an encaustic piece with 3D pieces layered into it. The small clay mask is broken into 3 pieces and could represent the idea of destroying the mask one wears to the world, and being yourself. There are also three hearts. If you look carefully, you can see a mask in the wax itself. The mask and the hearts are affixed with copper wire. The original is for sale, as well as prints.
Encaustic comes from the Greek word "enkaustikos" which means "to burn (in)" and is an ancient form of art. Each melted wax layer is mixed with resin for strength and body. An encaustic art piece is made up of many layers and uses clear wax or natural wax (which has a warm yellow tint) and wax paint which also includes resin.. Special brushes are needed. The surface of the finished piece is either smooth or textured.

I've never seen anything like this, it's wonderful! I admire the command you have over the technique to create this symbolic example of personas. V/Twt/Pamela ○>~~》}}}}
