Janet Eskridge taught us all about her encaustic process, which is a part of her mixed media pieces. She works on old boxes with a mix of various materials to tell a story.
"I work in old boxes. I am fascinated by their untold histories, their scent and the way they look and feel. I combine old paper, handmade books, maps, objects and photographs-all poignant fragments of someone’s story. I incorporate encaustic wax, an ancient technique used by Greek artisans, into each piece."
