Oh what fun I had creating this piece!

THE NINE SQUARES

were made by pouring resin on top 

FUN OBJECTS

 that I had put in the silicone baking tray made for mini brownies.
The resin set up overnight and hardened clear.
I poured lots of COLORED BEESWAX MEDIUM  on the board
and added my tiles melting the wax around them with my 

VERY HOT HEAT GUN

The words "Whats to Know" is impressed into the wax with 

METAL LETTER PUNCHES

Now you know it all, so there is nothing left to know!

  2. The "tiles" with the objects were poured resin which hardened. Resin and wax were not mixed.
