In “Opal Moon” I have used encaustic painting methods of heated, pigmented beeswax to represent the colors and textures of nature. By techniques of brushing, pouring and carving the wax, the fusing of multiple layers results in a surface of lustrous dimension. Many of the themes of my work begin as study of the atmospheric beauty of landscape surrounding my home but during the process of painting imaginative changes in direction originate a more intuitive and creative process of blending material and vision.
