Two Moons, 10″ x 8,” encaustic and ink on panel

Two Moons is one of ten new encaustic paintings on display this month at Wright Kingdom in Boulder, Colorado. I made the series using beeswax to create a skin-like sheen over rigorously cropped drawings of leaves, stems, pods, flowers and other pert, green things. The opening is tonight. You’re warmly invited to attend.
