Encaustic painting has a long history, dating
back to the 5th Century B.C.
Beeswax is impervious to moisture,
it will not deteriorate, it will not yellow or darken. It is also naturally protects pigment against the effects of UV rays.
Encaustic paintings do not
have to be varnished or protected by glass.
How
to care for your encaustic artwork:
Treat an encaustic painting as you would any fine
art. Use care hanging, transporting or storing a painting.
1.
Consistent Temperature - Hang and store at normal room temperatures. Avoid freezing and extremely
hot temperatures; wax will melt at 150°F / 65°C.
2. Avoid Direct Sunlight - Like all original artwork keep it out of direct sunlight.
3. Framing - Encaustic does not need to be protected by glass. A floater frame is an attractive option that also protects the edges of the painting from scratches, dents and chips.
Curing - During the
first 6-12 months, as the wax cures, an encaustic painting may develop
bloom. Bloom is a naturally occurring hazy white residue. It may also occur if
a painting is exposed to cold. Bloom can easily be removed by buffing the
surface of the painting. Encaustic paintings can be buffed to a high gloss
using a soft, lint-free cloth or pantyhose. If the original sheen has
become dull over time, it can be brought back by repeating the buffing process.
Once an encaustic painting has fully cured and hardened, it will repel
dust.
