Description

From Persephone to Princess Diana, poppies have mythic, medicinal and symbolic significance throughout the ages. And you know what else? They’re stunning. Linda Barnhart’s original encaustic work celebrates this ancient bloom. Linda has chosen to display its power by floating it in a shadow box with a pale faux wood frame and bright white background.

Encaustic is hot wax, shellac, and alcohol ink set on fire to give the piece organic bubbles texture and a shiny finish.
