Pouring on paper as a technique, for me, requires me to be present to the process and aware of all that is happening on the page. One must act in reaction to the way that the first color has fallen; it exists in the area between control and chaos. You have a modicum of control, you can control your color, and the general direction of the flow of the molten wax, and you can bend the paper to direct the wax.

With this, as with many of the variations possible with encaustic wax, understanding that its very ease can also be its nemesis. Being aware of the difference between accident and intention. The accident can open doors, create new impulses, change the direction of your work, but ultimately, the work must come from a place of intention, where the accidental has been enveloped into a greater reality of concept and intent. It allows us to work from our most profound intuitive place, but it must be an informed intuition, shaped through our knowledge and experience.
