Review of The Bee’s Knees Encaustics
by Shannon Newby
“These colors were fantastic to use. I felt like a kid in a candy store when I saw the neat packaging and various wax colors arrive in the mail. I couldn’t wait to try them out! The size and shape were really conducive to quick melting and the colors were rich and vibrant. (I *LOVE* the hive shape — brilliant!) I was particularly taken with the color blue — it was just gorgeous and applied seamlessly with my paint brush. I would highly recommend these encaustic paints to anyone. Great quality, great price – and super nice people to work with. Way to go, BeesKnees, I will certainly be back for more!!”
