Thanks, Margaret! 
I used Uni Pin fineliner, Promarkers and dry Inktense pencil. I normally use the Inktense pencils with water, but was trying something different with this. Tessellating just means that there are no gaps or overlapping when a shape is repeated. M.C Escher did amazing work changing the repeating shapes into reptiles, birds etcā¦
Hereās a link to some of his work:

Oooh I do love me a bit of tessellation especially with my kids :ā) Off to look at your painting in more detail Pam
Very interesting Pam, the patterns are relaxing to look at, I like Escherās butterflies best from that link

you need to get some of the vitrail too - the effects when you put them together is AMAZING
The box looks precious @paperchainsandbeads, lovely. 
@teabreaks, your landscapes always look so inviting, Iād love to go for a walk in that painting.
Love your design @phoenixprojects
Iāve been a little wishy washy- I always am after what I feel is an un-succesful painting, but I finished this girl off today, and I love her. Iāve been busy updating my website today too.

Lowri @twinkleandgloomart have you tried submitting your paintings to any of the card companies? I think ones like this would sell really well in places like hallmark etc.
Great work all
Here is another one of my encaustic art flower paintingsā¦

You take after your mother for your love of glitter Kelly! Another lovely painting from you
Waving Margaret, hope things are settling down again at work for you. All this change is a challenge!
Very striking Kelly, the colours really stand out well against the black.
