Encaustic Monotype "Resonant Lines" on Asian Mulberry Paper – 30 x 22

Original Work by Elizabeth Schowachert

This original encaustic monotype was created using R&F encaustic paints along with my own carbon black and handmade silicone tools. Printed on premium Asian mulberry paper, the piece features layered color, intricate linear elements, and a strong sense of rhythm and structure.

The encaustic monotype process allows for subtle variation, soft transitions, and a luminous quality that sits beautifully on mulberry paper. While the process involves wax, this particular work presents a smooth surface with minimal texture, focusing instead on movement, composition, and mark-making.

This piece is sold unframed, allowing you to select the presentation that best suits your space.
