Imagine a bright life fueled by color.
Let’s create it.

Encaustic is a mixture of raw pigment, beeswax and damar resin.

A Bookmaking Start

Little did I know that what began as a bookmaking workshop many years ago would alter the course of my creative journey. I sat for 3 hours tearing apart paper and books. By the end of the workshop my new altered book was done. My only question for the teacher was: “What is this melted wax we’ve been using to put together the book?” And that’s when the encaustic journey began and has never stopped.

Abstract Constructions of Love

I love color, form, and the heat of encaustic. These elements ignite my senses and bring forth a type of construction that is intuitive and reflective of my environment.

Nature is my essential teacher and the natural environment my best learning environment whether in my native California or abroad.  This confluence of continents has inspired me to explore the use of strong color, bold shapes and organic mark making.  I have learned from personal experience that color is a powerful change agent and can be used to influence emotions, health, and soulful integrity. 

I paint to experience positive change, curiosity and connection in life. As I work with Color, I feel an undefined language linking the physical and emotional geographies. I move and make choices with my body. Melodic. Decisive.  The human spirit unfolds.
