encaustic - mixed media - sketch journal

Current Encaustic Work

For the past decade I have been working in the medium of encaustic, sometimes including mixed media elements.  I often work in series with a specific theme and sometimes these series will overlap. Click images below to sample pages of encaustic and mixed media.
Let there be an opening into the quiet that lies beneath the chaos,
where you find the peace you did not think possible and see what shimmers within the storm. 

​John O’Donohue, poet

​"Creativity makes a leap, then looks to see where it is."  Mason Cooley

When we look at a particular work of northwest coast art and see the shape of it, we are only looking at its after-ife.  Its real life is the movement by which it got to be that shape.  Bill Reid, Haida carver

"It is a widely accepted notion among painters that it does not matter what one paints as long as it is well painted. This is the essence of academicism. There is no such thing as good painting about nothing."
Mark Rothko, artist
