Pen Point Attachments

Enkaustikos Hot Pen Point attachments have revolutionized the process of applying wax paint in thin lines. Anyone who is familiar with pen and ink drawing will be able to master drawing with encaustic wax paints. The brass pen tip is kept hot by threading into a wood burning tool, which we have renamed a "wax pen". To control the heat of the wax pen a temperature regulator is required. Simply melt your encaustic wax paint in metal cups on a hot plate and dip your pen into the liquified wax paint. Using the wax pen with a temperature regulator allows you to find the optimum temperature for each pen size and color. The heated pen tip allows you to draw with liquid wax paint at your leisure without rushing to apply color before the wax cools. Best of all, the heated pen tip fuses as you draw, eliminating the need to fuse your painting when finished and risk losing all of your details. The larger pen points are ideal for encaustic calligraphy. Pen Point attachments will produce an even, consistent, solid stroke of wax paint. A simple twist of the finger or wrist allows artists to produce various patterns, weaves, and unique textures.

Hot Brush Attachments

Enkaustikos Hot Brush attachments are a handcrafted brush made with solid brass filaments, a solid brass ferrule, and a solid brass threaded screw that allows the brush to be attached to a wood burning tool, which we have renamed a "wax pen". To control the heat of the wax pen a temperature regulator is required. The Hot Brush is designed to maintain wax paint in the liquid state until it is applied to the painting surface. This innovation allows the encaustic painter the option to work slowly and meticulously, or fast and spontaneously. Traditional and contemporary painters alike will enjoy the control offered by this brush. Artists love Enkaustikos' Hot Brushes because the heated bristles allow layers of paint to fuse as the artist paints, bonding all layers of paint into one stable paint film.
