When artist Georgie Gough came across the technique of encaustic painting she fell in love with it.
The technique involves painting with a hot iron on which is melted beeswax crayons. Amazing effects are achieved. It’s a medium that is texture-rich almost to the point of tactile.
Georgie’s solo exhibition Think You’ve Seen It All?
was held at the Serpentine in April 2008.
It featured lots of encaustic paintings,
as well as a series of acrylic paintings
inspired by
David Icke’s book Children of the Matrix and The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life series by
Drunvalo Melchizedek.
Exploring the possibilities of life through colour and form.
