Working with Encaustic Hot Wax, and Resin with various techniques and tools to complete each project. When it comes to painting with Encaustics a few favorite tools are my Batik Pen and Mini Iron. Working with a torch and heat gun assists in creating different effects. Very thin layers of wax are brushed on and heated, to bond to the previous layer creating a solid work of art.

When it comes to working with Resin my favorite tools are a hand torch and silicon molds. Many of my pieces are created with molds so it can easily be shaped and won’t leak onto the table, and removes easily once cured. While using molds your creative edge is tinting the resin, adding a variety of materials into the resin and pushing the tinted resin from layers to surface shaping with a heat gun or hand tools. There are times I paint onto multiple surface pours to create 3D imagery. There are endless possibilities!

In both Encaustic & Resin my favorite themes are the Ocean scenes, Florals and Abstract impressions.

I offer workshops on a limited basis. Commissions are welcome.

My Art takes the form of: Wall Hangings and Paintings both Large and Small, 3D forms of Bowls, Vases, Containers, Chess Sets, Platters, side & coffee tables and more.
