Zinc White Encaustic Wax Paint

Description

Zinc White is our exquisitely hand-crafted encaustic wax paint made with an extremely concentrated, high-quality single source pigment. Every encaustic stick is meticulously handmade, poured, and labeled using only pure, filtered beeswax, all natural dammar resin, and the maximum amount of hand-ground and richly textured pigment.

Zinc White produces a delicate, cool white with lower tinting strength than Titanium White, allowing for more nuanced color blending. It is slow drying in oil paints, making it suitable for extended blending and soft transitions. Unlike other whites, it forms a more brittle paint film, which is why it is often mixed with other whites for added durability. It is widely used in watercolor, oil, acrylic, and tempera for its luminous and subtle qualities.
