Wax was painted over the canvas and the surface was incised. |
DETAIL of the above: I would like to retain the delicate scrapings of the wax |
Watercolour was lightly brushed over the surface. |
Watercolour marks add another element but some of the wax scraping marks fell off as the surface was handled. |
Second study - thicker wax and incised lines were deeper. |
After brushing over with Chines ink. |
I will slowly increase the size of the frames and make the wax thicker so that the incised lines will be more pronounced.
