Whoops!

Sorry I have been remiss in updating this blog. Since getting home from the US, life has been a little crazy. I am finally catching up on things since I dropped my husband off at the airport this past weekend. He is back in the US for corporate training. I miss him, but I do enjoy having so much time to myself (weird artist tendency). I've been working on some really cool wave encaustic paintings, they'll be sets of 3. I totally can't wait to have them finished. And I'm still waiting for all of my supplies to come in so I can do even more! Hopefully this means I'll be able to go a bit bigger *gasp*! Hopefully the cost of shipping won't completely bury that. But, I definitely keep that cost down as much as possible, so that you can appreciate the art! I digress. Hope everyone is doing well and having a great summer!

Here is my latest work, Casting Away. It really reminds me of the water you see in the shallows of the ocean or when you are casting into the creeks in South Carolina. Makes me miss home...

Artistic Inspiration

I have so much fun making these contemporary art Mixers. One of my favorites things is color. Give me a Sherwin-Williams fan deck and I am a happy camper. It is pretty gross. Buut, I do know that I use some different color combinations in some of my artwork, so I thought I would share the inspiration from my Curry and Ginger series. Just because it is red and green, does NOT mean it has to be the holidays!

Here are some examples of Ginger from the Singapore Botanical Gardens. Who knew it was such a versatile and beautiful plant?
