I recently took a workshop
Encaustic & the Artist Book taught by
Catherine Nash. The class was a great learning experience and lots of fun! Two of my friends also took the workshop. Thank you to Catherine and other workshop participants! Here are the results of my first encaustic board book.

| A little Photoshopping to the book cover. I wondered if maybe the blue should be sky after the fact... |

| The back. |

| The pages. |
On a side note: I don't like photographing my artwork. I like making photographs, but not of my artwork. I've historically tried to make quick snapshots with a point and shoot camera. I did this of this book yesterday, late afternoon indoors, with camera flash going off. Ugh! They were bad. So today I went outside and made these.Nice light in the shade and no flash. Much better.
