Our “chief” Henkjan recently posted a post, asking you to introduce yourself nicely, and gave a numberorquestions that you could answer. I think I have introduced myself before, but I like to do it again, and this time I will try to do it nicely completely. #imanewhere On 27-11-2016 I signed up at Yoors. Ooh, that's longer ago than I thought! My colleague Sandra posted a message on facebook, a...
New Year's Eve by Encaustichris

Dear all, May I thank you for a beautiful Yors year? Despite all the fuss outside, it was here on Yoors cozy and warm. I found company, inspiration and friendship. Special thanks to Babita de Boer, who helped me with a problem (sometimes caused by myself), and Henkjan, who makes everything possible! Besides, I don't mention names, you're all my Yors heroes from 2020. Finally, I wish you a good end...

The Corona crisis is still holding our country in its grip. And not only our country, feel free to say the world! Everywhere you see initiatives to help companies, to brighten up lonely elderly people. It's a nice initiative. I also wanted to contribute, but first decided to keep it closer to home. Today there would have been a workshop with a number of Yoors members. It did not go on for understa...
Christmas Cards 2020

2 months ago
All of a sudden I realized: in a month it's almost Christmas! And this Toos without inspiration had no idea yet for this year's Christmas cards... What was clear: it would not be a standard Christmas card this year either! So I snooped into my stash and found wood slices thin enough to fit through the mailbox, and oh, that extra stamp, I'll get over it. I do not send everyone such a “card”, fo...
Underwater world

I made this work a while ago. It actually speaks for itself, some coral and fish in a tropical sea. So there is not much else to tell about. Perhaps it was painted in a somewhat naive way. I find it cheerful and get a holiday feeling with it. #encausticart #onderwaterwereld Underwater world, made with an encaustic iron, stylus and colored beeswax.

Just an encaustic work in between. Work of the day 25-10-2020

It's been a while since I posted an encaustic work. Currently, painting with beeswax does not work so well. I need a certain amount of energy that I haven't had in the last few months. It's too restless around me, I think, too much is happening. One of the last works I made is called “gangrene”, because that's what it radiates to me. But maybe you see something completely different in it? Just...
Encaustic, flowers and resin, new pendants. Work of the day 6-5-2020

8 months ago
For a while I've been playing with the thought of filling my encaustic pendants with resin. Air comes too often under the glasses (to my liking), especially when I use flowers in my pendants. But the casting resin I tried to date did not cooperate, I got air bubbles, crooked pendants or deflated keychains. Still, I thought it should be possible, and I went back to work. This time with other castin...
Large flowers

One of the first works I made was this drawing of two giant flowers. In this work I try to play with the proportions, creating a kind of fantasy world. Whoever knows my Pinterest boards knows I'm fascinated by this kind of art. I'm very curious to know what you think of my work. #encausticart #grotebloemen

New pendants with Encaustic art
Encaustichris
4 months ago
You like it, or you hate it (I think): pendants in animal form. Because I want to make something for everyone, and I got an order, I bought pendants in the shape of a cat's head. The order is not quite ready yet, but I thought I had a nice piece to use in one of the hangers. A magenta cat, with a little imagination, it's like a cat's coat in the pendant. In the drop-shaped pendant, I made a marble...
Love
Yvonne
6 months ago
This work radiates a special atmosphere. There is a serene peace and I see a man and a woman hugging each other. Are they saying goodbye or is it a reunion? Or do they love each other so much that they do this spontaneously? Next to the couple is a child. Is it their child? Where are they? All questions that this image raises to me. #encausticart #liefde #kunstschilderen #bijenwas Love, made with ...
Beeswax cubes in shapes, sizes and colors!

1 month ago
As most people know, I paint with beeswax, and that's where my username comes from. Encaustic art is called painting with beeswax, with a neat name. I always like to try everything, including the different types of beeswax, and that results in wax cubes in different shapes and sizes, and above all: lots of colors: #yoorsdecember #colours #beeswax #encausticart #bijenwas

Dear Yoorsians, Last week I received no less than 3x the pool win, in the category photography. Of course I am very happy with this, and proud of it! But... I could never have done this without your help!! Reason for me to create a give-away, and not one, I do three (after all, I won the pool three times). I've been thinking about what I'd give away. Of course, I could do a pendant, but these are ...

I started posting on Yoors on January 1, 2018, so I'm actually not new here at all and most of you already know me a bit. But I'm gonna make a fresh start. Well, not a new start, but start with a second account. An account I want to use for my own creations and especially my Encaustic Art work. Yeah, you read it right. For four months, I've been working on Encaustic Art. And I can say, I got prett...

Sometimes you're working for a long time, and sometimes you're done in a few minutes. It depends entirely on what is created on the paper. That's also the nice thing about painting with beeswax, you do not know in advance what you will see on the paper. However, you can influence it slightly by the temperature of the iron or the tool you use. In this case, I used a tissue and a stylus for making t...

Encaustic Art is still an activity where I enjoy a lot of fun and with which I can relax. As soon as I have free time, I'll take the iron and the washing cubes to get my life out. In the meantime, I have already done more than 450 jobs. Once I start, I can hardly stop. So it has become a wonderful addiction. I am @Encaustichris is still grateful, because I got to know Encaustic Art through her. Be...
New pendants, works of the day 24-8-2020
Encaustichris
5 months ago
Time for new pendants, I thought.The temperature has dropped a bit again, so the beeswax does not melt by itself, so I could get back to work. I had an order for a specific pendant, which I would make anyway, but I also wanted to play a little with color, and paint a little nice. As a result: I made more pendants, and also painted a bit away. While I was just playing with colour, beautiful effects...

Yesterday I posted macro photos of encaustic art: I wanted to show how much relief encaustic art has, and on scans I normally show you don't see that. You can look back at the post here: Encaustic art and macro photography, work of the day 22-8-2020 - Read more And as promised: today the scans of the entire work. It was my intention to work with tissue this time, and I did. Normally I would work w...

Encaustic art: painting with beeswax. Anyone who has been following me knows that this is one of my passions.Today I had time again and the energy to grab the iron and beeswax. And this time, I wanted to use a tissue in my work. So I said, so done, and I did several jobs. While I was doing this I realized that it might be very nice to take macro pictures of the details of the works, probably only ...
