These details show a closeup view of the panels. I used 3 separate canvases attached together to form the triptych. They measure 4" x 12" x 1 1/2 each. Each one was under painted with oil first , then the encaustic paint applied. They were completely finished before they were joined together.I pressed a heated metal paperclip into the wax while it was warm to get the circular impression on the lower one. The recesses were then filled with burnt sienna oil paint stick.
