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!

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!

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.
