ARTIST CAROL ELLIS

 I have always loved being creative and I am particularly  interested in colour, texture and patterns. My work is full of vibrant bright colours but I do sometimes use more subtle colours for a more natural look.

I am hooked with the encaustic art technique as much now as  when I started. Those who have met me will tell you I am very enthusiastic about this medium and happy to share my knowledge.

Experimenting with new ideas and finding new ways with encaustic waxes is also a passion for me. I like to have something new up my sleeve.

There are only a few like me who paint with wax and even less who paint on a larger scale with wax on canvas in the UK. 

Encaustic art came into my life in 1991. I experimented with it for 5 years before attending Michael Bossoms very first T1 course. This course was to achieve a recognised standard of teaching in the country.  After sending in 15 pieces of art work (homework)  to Michael I recieved my certificate and began teaching shortly after in 1996.

My work was published in Craft Creations magazine after being chosen from over 100 entries for a 'How To' article. If you subscribe to this magazine you will find the article in issue 2. Alternatively you can go to their website (www.craftcreations.co.uk) where you can download issue 2 and my article. Just click on free magazine download and choose issue 2. Then click on Encaustic Foxgloves by Carol Ellis. 

My paintings have sold at Craft Fairs and exhibitions.

After all these years I am still hooked and enjoy sharing  encaustic art with others when I teach at differant venues in and around the Hampshire area.
