Days’ End

The residency is over, and I left a good number of works behind for the exhibition which begins on March 2 at the Gallery. I had wanted to complete a few more pieces, but what I was able to try has been satisfying.

Folks have been so nice. Most of the people that came by my area were not familiar with encaustic, and their interest seemed quite sincere. Of the few that have heard of it, and one woman even works in this medium, no one does quite what I do with mixed media. Working with my drawings and mixed media is not as common as I imagined. This has been an excellent experience to push me out of my shell and comfort zone. It was also rewarding to pick up the pace and do more with my ideas. I’d like to do something like this again.
