FANTASTIC MIRROR IMAGES from wax studies




The 'mirror' image (Right) was made by putting paper over the original work (Left) and placing a hot iron on it.




Melted wax from the original work (Left)  is transferred to the paper.

Interesting and unexpected effects are obtained in both the original and mirror images!

The mirror images work well on their own.

I love the speckled texture that resulted from the interaction of watercolour and wax.
Thanks again to Mr Tagusari who shared this technique of waxworks on paper with me.
