I recently had my new work professionally photographed. I have not done this for a long time because of the expense. But the surface of encaustics plays a major role in the finished piece whether it be smooth or rough as mine is. Jim did a superb job. Since St Gaudens Memorial pays for all of the publicity, I thought I should spend the money for really good photos. Starting to pack everything up for FL. Need to take all the studio materials with me. I tried to work with the burning shellac method last week but the fumes were going to kill me or the fumes would blow up the studio being ignited by the gas heater pilot light. I will continue that method out of doors when I get to FL!
