MELANIE WILLIAMS - ENCAUSTIC ART GALLERY

Lets hope we've seen the last of the snow. This has been a work in progress for some time. #Encaustic #Wax #MelanieWilliams #Wales #Bala #Cymru

Spring is bringing a wonderful light with it and has inspired me to paint over the last few weeks. A spectrum of colours are coming through. #encaustic #wax #melaniewilliams #wales #cymru #bala #cwyr #art #artist

Had a lovely lazy time today.  Me and my wax. The leaves making a merry dance around the ancient oak tree. #encaustic #wax #melaniewilliams #bala #wales #artist #oak #derwen

I just love to experiment with my encaustic art. I constantly try new things - often with very muddy results - but sometimes the unexpected is such a revelation. The last few days I've been trying out some new pigments. What do you think? #EncausticWax #MelanieWilliams #art #Wales #Bala

Felt the volcanic influence today when painting 'Castell y Gwynt' (Castle of the Wind). No stone was left untouched. Great to get lost in the moment. #Encaustic #wwwmelaniewilliamsnet #mixedmedia #Bala #CastellyGwynt #Glyderau #Wax

I am delighted to say I have been invited to exhibit work at the 'Erwood Station Gallery' near Hay on Wye. Today we're busy packing up the artworks ready to be delivered. The gallery is full of amazing crafts and artwork in the old station. There is a great cafe too. www.erwoodstation.com #Encaustic #Wax #MelanieWilliams #wwwmelaniewilliamsnet #Bala #Wales

Very pleased to be able to show Suzy some tricks today to develop her skills in encaustic. We had great fun 'playing' together all day. Used hot guns, fire, scraping tools, charcoal - you name it we used it! Thank you for coming Suzy. I look forward to seeing your work in the future. #Workshop #MelanieWilliams #encaustic #Bala #wax

I have so much joy when painting with wax. I lose all sense of time and just switch off. Colour's and weave once again to create an Undergrowth. #wwwmelaniewilliamsnet #wax #Wales #Bala #encaustic
