Did I show these to you? I LOVE making these group portraits. I collect textures and imagery everywhere I go and weave them together digitally combining both vintage photographs and my digital photographs, abstract drawings, and antique ephemera to create biographical detail. I print these portraits in my studio on beautiful, German, Hahnemuhle Photo Rag paper, 308 gsm.

Art is more than what you see—it offers a glimpse into the artist’s soul, inviting you to join their creative journey and weave it into your own story. Today in the studio….. I’m working on the final details for a new collection of portraits, ‘Nights Like That, Days Like These,’ for my exhibition ‘Familiar Elements: Visible and Invisible’, at Frederick Holmes & Company Gallery in Seattle. Opening May 1. I will be exhibiting alongside my friend, colleague and abstract painter, Elise Wagner. Two artists, one medium, a coast-to-coast collaboration! Elise Wagner (West Coast ) and me (East Coast ) present a dialogue across distance through the ancient art of encaustic. Portraits meet Abstraction — Visible meets Invisible - East meets West. 📅 Opening reception: May 1 📍 Frederick Holmes & Company Gallery 309 Occidental Ave S, Seattle, WA #contemporaryart #artisticprocess

🖼️ Not all artists tools are paint brushes. Here are few favs from today…helping me complete work for my upcoming show with Elise Wagner at Frederick Holmes & Co Gallery in Seattle, opening May 1.

💫 EXCITING NEWS! ‘New Moon Garden’, from my series ‘Moon Phase Gardening’ has found a forever home with wonderful young collectors. I’m deeply honored that my work resonated with these art lovers who are just beginning their collection journey. Creating this piece was a labor of love, and knowing it will now be enjoyed in their space brings me immense joy. 💫🎨✨ 🌛Did I ever tell you about my series ‘Moon Phase Gardening’? The ancient practice of moon phase gardening is rooted in the belief that lunar cycles influence plant growth. This series of paintings serves as a reminder of our connection to nature, guiding us to observe and harmonize with the rhythms of the natural world. The Moon Phase Gardening imagery captures the essence of the gardener’s journey through meticulous charting and mapping during planting days. Integrating a blend of photographs, abstract drawings, solar plate etchings, and antique ephemera, the image unfolds in delicate layers of pigmented beeswax on Kozo and a wood panel substrate.   New Moon Garden Series: Moon Phase Gardening 40x15x2” photo collage, solar plate etchings, pigmented beeswax and mixed media on Kozo and Kitakata. . . #contemporaryartcollector   #Blackandwhiteart
