Inspiration
This piece emerged from my own search for balance — the kind that doesn’t come from perfection, but from allowing. The gentle bird became a symbol of that inner calm, and the layers of wax, paper, and paint mirror how we hold beauty, fragility, and strength all at once.

About Encaustic Wax & Care
Encaustic art is created by blending molten beeswax with pigment, producing a luminous surface that feels both modern and timeless. Each layer is fused with gentle heat, giving depth and texture unique to this ancient process. To care for your encaustic piece, keep it out of direct sunlight and away from extreme heat or cold. Gently buff with a soft cloth if desired — over time, the wax naturally develops a subtle sheen, enhancing its beauty and depth.

This one-of-a-kind piece adds a sense of balance to any space. Whether resting on a shelf, standing freely on its deep edge, or hung on a wall, Equanimity draws the eye and quiets the mind. Your original one-of-a-kind painting arrives signed by the artist (Annette Colby) on the back, titled, and beautifully wrapped.
