Ardent

I’ve dropped a new album (so far with only one track). Based on Pride and Prejudice, the concept is for each track to be a moment from the novel. The next track is being recorded now!

A Tale of Two Yellow Bells

The new piece, a work-in-progress, has flowers pressed with an iron before they were waxed. The older piece, finished about 7 mos. ago, is starting to brown.

Clears-the-Decks

An Argonian healer from #ESO. Her charming ferocity is not captured the way I hoped. Like all of my toons on the North American server, she’s named after a moment from the film “Gypsy”.

Faded Acacia

Comparison, 7 months on, of an organic encaustic and how it’s faded. Sad face.

Purple Desert Sage

3″ x 3″ on wallboard. Although I reinforced the upper flower with wax and shellac, two petals broke off. The placement was too vulnerable.

Small Pine

I’m trying a new feature, a short clip of a particular encaustic piece. I’m also working within a new wordpress theme that won’t auto-display media. Lol help! Click thru to get to the youtube.

Guthrie and Tiantian

Gruntilda

Joan of Arc

From the earliest known illustration. 3″ x 4″ on wallboard.

Venice box

Made from a Dan the Sausageman box, this piece uses a print from our amazing six weeks living in Venice, Italy in 2000. I sanded the box, flipped the lid (Dan’s logo is still on the underside), and asked Eric to attach handles.
