MARKING CHANGES

The River Room at River Arts Gallery, Damariscotta, ME

October 3 - 23, 2024

This new work explores the theme of impermanence using encaustic painting, oil monotype and collage.  This theme is one I have repeated over the years. 

I began with creating lots of monotypes and gelatin prints using the various detritus found from beaches, walking paths and woods.  Working in an intuitive way, marks were added using an array of collected objects. The prints are layered, torn, collaged and mounted with encaustic medium.
The instinctual rearranging of the pieces begins to find voice and a new structure and form emerges.
