Waxing lyrical again

Almost done treating the latest round of papers done with encaustic three weeks ago. Most are double sided.
Next stage is to discover what other forms i can use to make them into books, given i have a ton of concertinas. The encaustic doesn't take glue so fasteners or stitching are the options.

Wonderful images Cindy. How large are they in real life?

Jack, these are details from pieces that are 70x50cm. I plan to use them in artist's books, so I'm only concerned with ensuring that there are lots of interesting parts. The big piece doesn't work as a piece, and that's quite freeing; it means i can play with texture and colour and not worry about "spoiling" something.
most of these photos are about the size of the real page (i.e. I've taken pix with my phone at about the size that you see (maybe a little smaller).
