Encaustic Monotype "Compression" on Asian Mulberry Paper – 16" x 22" (Copy)

Compression – Encaustic Monotype in Carbon Black (22 x 16 inches)

Original Encaustic Monotype by Elizabeth Schowachert

Description
Created using Elizabeth’s signature Carbon Black encaustic paint, this encaustic monotype features layered, fan-like forms that rise and interlock with structural rhythm. The composition feels both architectural and organic—built from repeated gestures that create depth, compression, and upward motion.

This is a one-of-a-kind original, created on handmade Asian paper using a heated palette and direct transfer technique.
