Encaustic - a painting technique that was already developed in antiquity. According to estimates, the technique is over 3,000 years old and continues to inspire more and more people today, whether they are artists or hobbyists.

In modern times, the development of special tools and encaustic waxes has revived the topic of encaustic.
