Original artwork description:

Cities have become the natural habitat of humanity and often, we rush to live our lives and neglect to notice our environment which is full of art pieces with stories to tell and characters to get to know, although the meeting is not always a pleasure. The image depicts an undeservedly neglected building in Budapest that I thought was restored in the picture. Budapest - the capital of Hungary - is a city with eclectic architecture, in it, everyone can find what they love.

In recent years, I have used OSB as a basis. By retracting the paint layers, I use the texture of the veneer as part of my compositions to create a unique rustic industrial atmosphere. Due to the OSB board, these works of art are very stable but heavy. This is recycled art.

The painting is made with self-made paint, which consists of pigments and beeswax. Does not contain oil or other paints.

The procedure itself dates back to antiquity and has been known for thousands of years. Only a few artists around the world work with wax on its own.
Artworks made with encaustic are characterized by bright color and silky light. Thanks to the well-preserving properties of the wax, the colors do not fade over time and retain their liveliness.

The encaustic is equipped with a simple wooden exhibition frame, which harmonizes with the industrial style of the painting and highlights it well. Ready to hang!

This work will be delivered with Care Instructions for my encaustic paintings and a signed certificate of authenticity. Carefully packaged and tracked shipping. I ship this work in cardboard boxes carefully wrapped in bubble foil and protect the painting with cardboard.

PLEASE KINDLY NOTE:
- the colors in life may slightly vary from the photo due to lighting sources or monitor settings.
- the parcel will be sent from Hungary. Should the delivery address be outside the EU, the recipient may need to declare the painting and pay some local VAT and customs duties.
