Mixing colours with hot wax.
Painting technique where pigments are suspended in wax.
A hot wax method of painting. The process of painting on a surface with paints created by mixing dry pigment with molten wax (typically refined white beeswax) with the addition of varying amounts of Damar varnish. A warm working palette is employed when applying the encaustic method. The ability to manipulate the surface of the wax, creating any texture imagined, and limitless color combinations make this form of painting particularly interesting.
Encaustic paints a blend of oil paint and beeswax and must be heated for use. Examples of ancient encaustic murals and portraits were found among the ruins of Pompeii.
A painting medium in which pigment is suspended in a binder of hot wax.
a paint consisting of pigment mixed with melted beeswax; it is fixed with heat after application
Ancient technique of painting with layers of melted wax and pigment. The finished painting is then fused with heat.
Pigment in wax. Heat is used to blend and
a paint made from pigment mixed with melted beeswax and/or resin, often applied to walls by means of a trowel in order to create a mottled or gradated effect of colors.

This ancient art uses colored wax for painting. This technique involves painting images onto walls with pigments that are blended with wax. When used with heat, such as an iron, the permanent color is burned into the wall, for good.
This is a technique to which molten wax mixed with pigments is applied to a surface. Many times a Resin is added to the mixture. When dry, the colors have a glossy shine. The technique was first used in the 1st and 3rd centuries but has enjoyed a revival in the 21st century.
