Encaustic Monoprints

Monotype 4, 2017

Starting in 2017, my work has been focused on the encaustic monotype, a relatively new process offering unique qualities not achievable through other printmaking or encaustic painting methods. One of the joys of encaustic monotype (monoprint) is that if offers endless possibilities. Working directly on a heated surface, fluid layers of encaustic can be applied, manipulated and reworked to create a singular print of depth, translucency and complex color.

Recent Sculpture: Bee Brood Chambers

My “brood chamber” series, constructed from layers of fragile organic material, beeswax and encaustic, symbolize the conflict I see taking place between nature and civilization and my concern for our fragile environment. Specifically, the brood chambers serve as memento mori for the world-wide honey bee “colony collapse syndrome, that threatens our food supply.
