This unique synthetic wax was formulated for cleaning your brushes, tools, and even your palette between encaustic color changes. We named it Slick Wax because it really works like a charm! Slick wax eliminates the need for any type of solvent in your studio. Simply have a tin of melted slick wax available on your hot palette during the entire painting process and you will be able to avoid color contamination. When you want to move from one color to another, simply rinse your brush in the slick wax and wipe off any excess wax with a paper towel. The slick wax will have removed the color with ease and you can get right back to painting. And for those who like to color mix on their palette, you can even use the slick wax directly on the palette and with a wipe of a paper towel, you will have a nice clean surface to continue color mixing on. Many encaustic artists can agree that this product is truly essential to any encaustic studio! If you use it a lot, we recommend you pick up our larger sizing available within our sundries line. It comes in our resealable silver bag for easy storage. For those looking for the metal Hot Cakes tin, Slick Wax is available in 6 fl oz as well!

Gioconda 48 Pastel Pencil Set in a Metal Tin - The key components of these pencils are the pure, micro-pulverized natural substances on a base of calcium carbonate. Together with top-quality additives and binding agents, a perfect base mixture is created into which colour pigments are carefully mixed. The pigments are sourced from all over the world and their quality, light permanency and dosed concentration influence the final result as well as the durability of the artworks. With a 4.2mm diamter lead, this pencil provides excellent artistic potential for all users. The mature wood casing allows quick and easy sharpening, making it possible to draw even very fine details. They are therefore suitable for detailed drawing as a supplement to round soft pastels.

Damar resin is a very people and earth friendly ingredient. Damar resin is harvested from trees in Malaysia and these trees are slashed yearly to ooze sap for harvesting. These trees are not damaged from this process and it is very similar to the tapping of maple trees for syrup. As the sap dries and solidifies it captures insects, dried leaves, and tree bark so when damar resin arrives to us in its crystal form (as seen in the picture above) all of these imbedded impurities must be removed. These impurities are heat filtered out to make a usable product. Damar resin is a main ingredient in our encaustic paint. Enkaustikos uses damar resin to produce a harder and more durable paint film. Damar in combination with beeswax produces a paint film with a higher index of refraction and this is why encaustic colors appear so luminous. Unlike damar varnish, damar resin is a safe product to work with. The FDA has even approved the use of damar resin to coat the boxes carting fruits and vegetables. Many corrugated produce boxes found in your nearby supermarkets have been coated with damar resin to protect the cardboard from moisture. Many encaustic recipes incorrectly suggest that an artist should use damar varnish. This is not a good idea because damar varnish is made with turpentine. We would like to emphasize that our wax paints are made with damar resin and not damar varnish. We heat filter out the impurities without the use of solvents. We do not recommend working with damar varnish because it contains turpentine which is not only flammable but also gives off unhealthy fumes.

Mount Vision Handmade Pastels Karl Kelly, the creator of Mt. Vision Pastels, started his career making handmade oil paints for one of the United States best known fine oil paint manufacturers. Karl says "I wanted to bring the vivid color and particular density of each pigment to pastel with the same high quality I applied to making paint." The Mount Vision Pastel Company was launched in the top story of an old general store in Mt. Vision, New York, in the Fall of 2000. Mount Vision Pastels have an intensity that rivals all other imported brands of pastels. They have a wonderful, soft, almost buttery feel; the pigment goes down without resistance and allows the build up of several layers. The colors chosen for Mount Vision pastels have been picked from nature, as well as the artistic use of color in the medium. The color line is constantly growing to meet the needs of pastelists. Mount Vision pastels are larger than most other brands- and perhaps best of all, they are less expensive because they are made in the United States and are not subject to added import and shipping fees. All of our customers who have tried them are absolutely delighted!

Sennelier oil pastel- a creation of geniuses! In 1949, Pablo Picasso asked Henri Sennelier to create a new medium that had qualities of oil paint and soft pastel in an easy to apply stick form. Picasso told Henri "I want a colored pastel that I can paint on anything... wood, paper, canvas or metal without having to prepare or prime the surface." This collaboration gave birth to Sennelier Oil Pastels; pure and intense drawing sticks, with a completely new form of consistency and smoothness.
Sennelier Oil Pastels feature the highest concentration of top quality, pure organic and mineral pigments on the market. Non-yellowing, non-siccative, non-acidic, inert binder. Non-acidic wax that gives Sennelier oil pastels superior strength, adhesion, and suppleness.
This set features 24 assorted colors; suitable for just about any subject you can think of!

Tradition...This is what Sennelier Egg Tempera embodies. Sennelier uses authentic formulation of the classic egg tempera used by artists since the Renaissance. Much of the religious panel paintings done between the 12th and 15th centuries were done in this delicate and subtle medium. Botticelli's "The Birth of Venus" is a striking example of the beautiful results possible with egg tempera.

In contemporary art history, Sennelier's Egg Tempera is famous as the paints used by Marc Chagall. It is a perfect choice for artists seeking a highly pigmented, professional quality alternative to oil paints and solvents. Capable of creating detailed and complex effects, egg tempera is a water-soluble and highly archival painting medium.

Centuries old egg emulsion binder offering a satin matte finish.

The Enkaustikos professional line of wax paint has been manufactured in Western New York since 1996. We use U.S. Pharmaceutical Grade Beeswax, which is chemical and bleach free, and the highest grade of Damar Resin to make the base of all our wax paints. To this base we add only the finest, artist grade dry pigments. These pigments are lightfast and engineered to withstand the heat requirements of the encaustic process without color shifts. Our milling operation is the ultimate paint making system, utilizing advanced technology. It is capable of shearing pigment to the smallest particle size resulting in our ability to manufacture a paint that is richer, creamier, cleaner, and more vibrant, while bringing out the true personality of each paint.

We recommend heating our wax paints between 150 and 175 degrees F to prevent burning and to offer optimum working characteristics.

Enkaustikos paints are sold in 1 fluid ounce disks which measure approximately 2 inches in diameter and are 1/2 inch thick. If you buy 16 fl ounces you will receive 16 disks. This makes it easier and quicker to melt only what you need and much easier to dispense in the classroom or workshop.

Since 1996 Enkaustikos has manufactured and sold paints directly to encaustic artists through Fineartstore.com. Today, so many artists have discovered the uniqueness and versatility of wax painting that it has grown into a mainstream medium. Retail stores across the US, Canada and all the way to Australia are now carrying Enkaustikos paints. Most of these stores will special order paints for you in any size or color and save you the shipping expense. We encourage you to support your local art supply store, to find the nearest store, please visit www.encausticpaints.com and click on the retailer locator.
