Artist Statement:
Art is an opportunity to connect with my intuition. It is where I give myself permission to speak from the source of where I am in that moment. The process, not the product, invites me over and over again to discover that planning ahead is a false sense of control, and not as fun when I arrive at the end. Creating something gives me a place to explore and surprise myself.
Mediums are interchangeable to me; as long as I can create a way to involve color, texture, form and layers. What I love about chalk pastel and encaustic painting is that it takes time to see all that is there. There is a translucent quality when colors come through. A deeper layer can peek through barely being detected while directly or indirectly effecting the proceeding layers. The layers in the encaustic pieces push the illusion of depth even more by suspending and obscurng the colors, containing them behind a veil of wax.
