Interest in encaustic monoprinting has grown at a phenomenal rate. These affordable plates from Enkaustikos allow you to convert any pancake griddle into a printing plate. Enkaustikos aluminum panels have a clear anodized coating to eliminate color reaction to the aluminum surface. When using Hot Sticks against the plate you will find that they melt with ease and the plates can even serve as a nice color mixing palette. Enkaustikos offers anodized aluminum plates in a variety of sizes. Please note: Although the plate is shown above with Hot Sticks Encaustic Paint colors, these paints are not included with the plate. Hot Sticks can be purchased separately.

Love it with exceptions that are not its fault.
You can expect this to do exactly what you wanted for encaustic monoprint and/or mixing. That said be aware of the following things:-it will sometimes slide around the griddle-it will get wax under it (and slide around some more)-cleaning it is a pain because, well, you need to clean both sides when it's hot and you gotta be able to hold it while cleaning itI'm giving it 5 stars and telling you to just be aware of these things because I'm not sure theres a solution to these issues. aside from just buying or creating an anodized palette.
