  • In my encaustic work, combining the techniques of the ancient Greco-Roman painters with those of the old and new masters help to create unique modern images. As with all encaustic work, viewing it in person is the best way to appreciate the immediacy of the medium, brought to life as light travels through the layers of pigmented beeswax. Each new painting is another opportunity for a technical experiment, whether the focus is on a new blending method or experimenting with a new color harmony.

    My work serves to entertain the eye by recording, through observation and rendering, the play of light on a variety of materials.
