Wax Finish

I covered one of the red onion mold-dyed pieces with beeswax to bring out the colors. Now it's so transparent you can see the stretcher bars underneath it.



I'm not sure if this is a problem or not.

I considered using linseed oil, but it's so toxic, and Ramian at Graphaids said it would eventually dry and lose its wet look. Damar varnish was a possibility, but it's toxic, too. So I went with beeswax, which gives it an off-white color, and a nice beeswax smell to cover up the onion smell!
