What is Encaustic?
Encaustic comes from Greek (enkaustikos) which means ‘to burn in’. Encaustics uses pigmented beeswax and damar resin as a painting medium. The encaustic paint is heated/melted with various tools and applied to a rigid substrate. Tools are used to manipulate and shape the wax, including: heat gun, torch encaustic iron, encaustic stylus and brushes.
What do we do?
From encaustic wax paints, encaustic mediums, tools, cradle panels, brushes, books, DVD’s to heat palettes and raw materials we stock it! Want to make your own wax paints? We have beeswax, damar resin and dry pigments so you can experiment and perfect your own encaustic paint.
We love spreading the word and offer workshops and demonstrations. Join our mailing list to find out the latest news and information.
At Encaustic Australia, we believe in using good quality materials and equipment when undertaking any task. That’s why we have spent alot of time sourcing top quality materials and supplies. Encaustic is far more than just pigmented beeswax, hence we have added other media that can be incorporated into encaustics.
We also understand that some wish to make their own paints, so we not only offer finished paints, but also the raw materials to create your own wax paints from scratch, which in the end saves you a few dollars and makes everyone happy.
