Another Cold Wax and Oil piece

This is the start of a larger cold wax and oil piece.  The floral strip measures 8"hx24"w.  I am hoping to put a 7"hx24" abstract cold wax painting above the flowers and then a 15"hx24"w painting below again with the cold wax representing the garden or landscape the flowers might have come from.

I ordered a book written by Rebecca Coldwell and Jerry McLaughin and have been waiting to tackle the cold wax part thinking the book might give me some new information and ideas on how to manipulate the wax and oil together
