Encaustic “Opening” Series

After building up infinite layers of translucent encaustic wax over and around a simple collage, building more layers around the perimeter, then slowly fusing and scraping some wax away - a kind of window or “Opening” is formed to reveal a distant layer.

“Luminous, delicate, and mysterious, the work illustrates the magical qualities possible with the encaustic medium. The warm colors, layered mysteries, and bright, animated spirit make for a very lyrical work.” —Sybil Maimin, Sculptor, Journalist
