4" Silicone Micro-Line Blade
This 4" silicone micro-line blade mark-making tool is designed to work with encaustic medium on a Roland HOTbox™ or another hot palette. The silicone blade has a very fine "micro-line" pattern that can create a wide array of marks. A few examples are included with the Glider XL photos.
In addition to encaustic monotype, the silicone blade tool can be used with Alcohol Ink, on a Gelli Printing Plate, with Fluid Acrylic on Yupo, and many many different applications.

This tool will be handmade by Elizabeth. Since these tools are handmade, each has its own unique mark, so it will always be specific to the artist that uses it.
This tool is designed to pull paint from the plate, leaving “random” flowing lines, shapes, and or marks. It moves easily across the plate, allowing the artist to move the blade without bending or disruption.
