Encaustic Flower Constructions
These constructions combine found objects, collage, and encaustic on repurposed wood.
ENCAUSTIC: NOUN; A paint consisting of pigment mixed with beeswax and fixed with heat after its application. Latin encausticus, from Greek enkaustikos, from enkaiein , enkau-, to paint in encaustic : en-, in + kaiein, to burn
Wax, like water, flows... moves and changes and pools and collects - it has a liquid quality even when solid and that uncertainty informs my world - and the belief of a life in flux and constant change - I embrace this concept and roll with it!
