Encaustic “Landscapes”

My abstract “Landscapes” depict the horizontal aspects of a landscape that I see most strongly. Intentionally imperfect lines show earthy greens and browns, ethereal sky blues, sunny yellows, or the pink and orange tones of a remembered sunset. Painting “en plein air” is far too distracting for me, so I work on these peacefully ensconced in my studio, with nothing but the materials, and the occasional photo, in front of me. The character of the materials, along with my memories and emotions, guide the imagery.
