The WINTER Landscapes WAX MONOPRINT Bars are pigment-rich, heat-activated wax bars designed for heated plate play, monoprints, and wax resist on paper. This 7-color starter set features single, solid colors selected for moody, earthy mixing—perfect for building atmosphere, shadow, and glow in your prints and layered works. Pair them with Mineral Wash Inks and Confetti Cakes to remix a full Winter Landscapes color story.
These bars were created for that moment when you want to move fast—to draw directly into wax, push color around a warm surface, and pull a print that feels alive with texture.
The formula for the monoprint bar is slightly different from my original PIGMENT BARS, it incorporates a blend of natural waxes which create a harder wax paint bar but still lays down vibrant beauties color.
Winter Landscapes is my moody + grounded palette: deep berry woods, evergreen shadows, warm stone neutrals, and night-sky depth.
Each bar is poured as a single color, so you can build your own mixes on the plate or paper and maintain control of the color.
Use them on a heated plate for bold marks and soft transitions, then layer them with ink washes for depth—or use them dry on paper for resist and ground effects. They’re made to play beautifully alongside my other wax tools, especially MELT + MIX Confetti Cakes and Mineral Wash Inks.

How to Use
- Wax resist: rub/draw on paper, then paint over with inks or watercolor for resist effects
- Heated plate monoprints: warm your plate, draw/drag the bar directly, blend, then pull a print
- Layer + lift: build thin layers, scrape back, and pull a second/ghost print
- Mix on the heated plate: blend two or more bars to create custom neutrals and stormy transitions
- Collage layering: add wax marks as a warm ground, then reheat gently if you want to soften/settle layers
Tips
- Start with gentle heat—you don’t need high temperatures to get beautiful movement.
- For softer blends, warm the bar slightly and blend on the plate with a brayer or scraper.
- Paint and make marks with a quilting iron or heat tool
- For crisp marks, use the bar with a warmer plate and pull quickly.
- Store finished wax-on-paper work with parchment/glassine interleaving and avoid leaving work in hot environments.
Pairing Suggestions
- Pair with Mineral Wash Inks for underpainting + wax resist.
- Pair with MELT + MIX Confetti Cakes to melt, blend, and brush-paint custom wax layers.
- Use alongside Pigment Bars to expand your mixing range.
