CONTEMPORARY ENCAUSTIC PAINTINGS
My Process
Working alone in the studio, I build each painting one fused layer at a time — wax, pigment, heat, repeat. Some pieces come together quickly, in an attempt to catch a moment before it fades; others take shape more slowly. That same instinct carries into commissions: hands-on, responsive, shaped around your space.
Encaustic— an ancient craft.
Encaustic dates back over two thousand years, to ancient Greek and Roman painters who fused wax and pigment into portraits that still hold their color today.
Located at the Jersey Shore.
