Art In Wax : Online Exhibition Tree of Life
New online exhibit @ Art In Wax
I recently painted a couple of pictures in the style of a “Tree of Life” and showed them on Facebook, they had a great response and I thought it would be fun to have a small series of these pictures featured on my website exhibits page …….
I was inspired when I painted the first picture and sent this message to my niece …..
We are all branches in our own trees, some entwine more than others, some have lots of branches off them, and others are more single but they are all connected and have the same root structure …… Family

And like Families my new series of Tree paintings are all different ……
Tree of Life Art
Please visit the new online exhibition to view the paintings : Tree of Life Paintings
The paintings are mostly A5 in size, the ones on a white background are painted using Encaustic hot wax on specialist gloss card, I have left the background plain to enhance the tree as the main subject. The black background paintings are on a matt black mount board and have a very different effect as they are absorbent and the wax is partly absorbed into the board, I really like this effect and have used white and silver wax on these monochrome style trees to give a wonder simmer to the leaves.
Exhibit Paintings For Sale
The exhibit paintings are for sale please contact me for information on sizes, prices etc.

What a beautiful exhibition Hazel, and a wonderful subject. It is lovely to see the tree of life represented in this medium. Great work, and may it be very successful.
Thank you Hazel, this project has been a lot of fun to paint 🙂
