This vibrant encaustic painting captures the drama and beauty of a glowing sunset sky meeting the restless waters below. Created with molten beeswax, damar resin, and richly pigmented colors, the work layers shades of sapphire blue, fiery orange, deep crimson, and soft lavender to evoke the feeling of standing at the water’s edge as the sun dips below the horizon.
The textured surface, achieved through repeated heating, carving, and layering, gives the waves a dynamic sense of motion, while the glowing sky radiates warmth and energy. No two encaustic paintings are ever alike—the wax creates a depth and luminosity that makes the piece come alive from every angle.
Painted on a sturdy wood panel and finished with clean edges, this piece is ready to hang as is. A frame can also be added for an additional cost—just let me know your preference! Perfect for collectors, lake lovers, or anyone who wants to add a bold splash of nature-inspired art to their home.
