I am a Midwest based Encaustic artist, using abstracted imagery and clear, bright colors to create my artwork. My work is created with one of the oldest mediums still in use today called Encaustic - which is made of beeswax, damar resin and pigment.

I am a Midwest based Encaustic artist, using abstracted imagery and clear, bright colors to create my artwork. My work is created with one of the oldest mediums still in use today called Encaustic - which is made of beeswax, damar resin and pigment.
As a visual person, I’m always trying to capture those little moments that call my attention to the urge of creating art and design, to see what evolves from the inspiration to create my artwork. I began working as a photographer with Encaustic to work with my photography, but when I started using this medium, I was enticed by the process. I have told many that it is like being a painter and sculptor at the same time. Although this medium has been around for ages, not many know about it. But when they see Encaustic work, they are amazed by the translucency of the pieces and the depth of the layers.

As a artist, designer and photographer, I find myself in front of and behind technology for long hours at a time. It is part of what I do, but that process helps me become one with what is around me.

As a artist, designer and photographer, I find myself in front of and behind technology for long hours at a time. It is part of what I do, but that process helps me become one with what is around me. My creativity is inspired by many things. Finding one-of-a-kind vintage pieces that can be repurposed and restored, going for walks and noticing how the light falls on my surroundings. Just being observant of what goes on around me inspires my art and design .
Inspiration is everywhere and I use that when I am working my Encaustic art. When I am working my paintings, I have learned that Encaustics has a little life of its own in how it reacts to the heat. I embrace that uncertainty and let go of desired results to create the excitement of the final piece.
