These are a few of my newer favorites, hung as part of the show.  The general theme was ‘mixing media’, as I have completely fallen in love the way that encaustics allow me to use everything from my photographs to bits of fabric to old maps from the glove compartment in new and interesting ways.

Note that my next exercise will be in learning how to properly photograph art, but these should give you the jest of things…

    OK. I’ve made up my mind. I’m dumping my stocks and investing in your art. Love you so much!

    On the sixth one down it looks like a woman’s face in the center of the trees did you mean to do that? Totally awesome. You are amazing! Seventh one could have the profile of a face in it also but not so noticeable as the other one.
