| About the Artist |
Inspired by music and color, I paint with encaustics, oils and acrylics. I paint the wonder and intelligence of nature through spontaneous pouring gestures. |

Falling Sky, Ice Mountain
2001 86cm height x 76cm width |
|
This image was inspired by the unconcerned and perfectly
beautiful clear blue sky I witnessed at the time the
Twin Towers were destroyed on September 11, 2001. |
Birth of Spring Series, No. 2
2006 Encaustic (pigmented beeswax), desert plant wax, Malaysian fir sap & raw pigment on Birchwood panel 56cm Diameter |
|
Encaustic comes from a Greek word which means "burn in". This ancient medium of melted beeswax mixed with pigment was once used in Greco-Roman Egypt to paint mummy masks from 100 B.C. to A.D. 200. The range that comes with pigmented wax is tremendous.
The artist must fuse each new layer of applied wax by
heating or burning in the new layer to the layer just beneath.
Modern day painters create exquisite textures and translucencies.
A sculptural effect can range from "heavy" or built up impasto surfaces to the imagery of a very joyful and seductive dance of the seven veils. It takes as many as 10 Million flowers for bees to make one pound of wax. What an honor to use this medium.
