Pathways #2
My painting "Pathways" was created using an encaustic technique known as accretion. For this process, I applied multiple layers of hot wax onto the canvas, and allowed them to cool before brushing on additional layers. Through this laborious and time-consuming process, I gradually built up a thick texture within the wax which gave the painting its unique character.
As I was creating Pathways, I wanted to explore the concept of how each of us take different paths throughout our lives. By depicting a seemingly infinite array of pathways, I wished to capture the idea that though we can all take different directions in life, all journeys are intertwined with one another. Pathways is an exploration into how we many traverse various paths before reaching our destinations.

Pathways #1
My abstract painting in the series "Pathways" is part of a larger exploration into how we many traverse various paths before reaching our destinations. It consists of an encaustic technique called accretion where multiple layers of wax are brushed on until a texture within the wax appears.
The idea behind Pathways is to capture and explore how each one of us take different paths throughout our lives, and though these pathways may differ from one another, they all lead to various destinations that are ultimately intertwined with one another. This painting is my attempt to communicate this concept through its use of color and shape.

“We All Bleed Red” explores the many faces of humanity. This encaustic painting uses different colors, and textures of wax to represent the innumerable facets to humanity. But no matter who we are, where we come from or what we look like, we all bleed red, we are all one human family. Layers of colored wax blend and fold into one another like all of our characteristics that make us human.
Placement recommendation:
This piece would make an excellent focal point in your dining room to bring up as a topic of conversation at your next dinner party.
