The Lightness of Being

Picture
The Lightness of Being  -Luminous, layered, transformative.
​ I worked on this series about 19 months. I was inspired by different music for every painting,
​By adding rhythmic, curving lines and shapes to break up the rigidity of some of the geometric forms, reminds me that I never have total control of my life or the encaustic. These moving lines take the work to a deeper, more subconscious state that can be meditative and musical. I am often influenced by selected classical or jazz melodies.
I strive to create layered luminosity that is appealingly tactile. I encourage viewers to stroke and caress the paintings and discover the transitory experience of the painting.
