Elemental Balance Encaustic Medallion
Elemental Balance Medallion captures the cyclical rhythm of nature's four elements, spiraling outward from a centered yin-yang symbol. Each quadrant flows into the next, creating a continuous meditation on balance, transformation, and interconnection.
Built on a natural wood slice with its organic edge preserved, layers of pigmented encaustic wax are applied, carved, and fused, creating dimensional texture that shifts with light.
Earth (green): Grounding. Stability. Growth.
Water (blue): Flow. Emotion. Adaptability.
Air (grey): Clarity. Breath. Spaciousness.
Fire (gold): Transformation. Energy. Renewal.
At the center, the yin-yang symbol holds the tension of opposites. Light and shadow. Stillness and motion. Balance is not static but dynamic, always shifting, always whole.
Materials: Encaustic wax (ancient beeswax medium), natural wood slice with organic edge, jute hanger. Ready to hang.
This piece invites contemplation. What element are you embodying today? What element are you calling in?
One of a kind. Once it's gone, it's gone.
