There is so much clarity as you emerge from a storm. The light, the scents, the scenes… all your perceptions are a little sharper with fresh eyes. Be grateful for weathering it all.

DETAILS: Original encaustic painting on wood. 12x12,” 2023. Unframed art on a wood panel with 1+ 7/8” depth and white-washed edges. Hanging hardware included. Packed and shipped in insulated boxes to accommodate the fragility of the beeswax.

*Encaustic is a centuries-old process of painting with melted beeswax, tree sap (damar resin) and oil paint. Beeswax is a natural surface and medium that may include tiny fibers or textures caught in the wax. This is a natural part of the process. The medium/surface takes two months to fully cure so treat it gently until then. Once fully cured an encaustic painting can hang over a fireplace without melting. Even after curing it is never recommended to hang encaustic art in direct light, close to a window as the passive solar can cause melting or sweating.

Note: Encaustic is a natural medium and inherently may contain inclusions like air bubbles or particles in the wax surface.
