Encaustic painting is an ancient technique created by the Greeks. It uses melted wax, originally bees wax mixed with pigments and then altered using resin, originally crystallized tree resin. It gives a very brilliant and long lasting effect. The wax with the pigment is applied to the canvas, wood or plaster and then heat is passed over the surface to create a uniform film. Resin is applied to alter the consistency is necessary. The wax is built up in layers and heated every time to give a rich optical effect and is time consuming and laborious.

An artist during the middle ages would choose another medium over encaustic painting because of how time consuming and laborious it is to do.

What was not good about taylor swifts new album Red Taylor’s version? What was the worst song on it?
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Favorite song out of all of them: The Last Time ft. Gary Lightbody

Explanation:

After listening to the entire album, have to agree with the first person who answered. I haven't listened to Taylor since middle school and i have to say coming back to hear her new album RED i'm not impressed. despite the title of the album most of the songs seem rather bland, i mean don't get wrong i love Taylor swift as much as the next person. But this would have my least favorite album so far, even so i can't wait to hear more of her music and one bad album isn't gonna stop me.
