I had a visit with an encaustic artist from Oregon this past weekend who introduced me to the work of Shawna Moore. This video provides wonderful insight into the creative process.
I have been watching the old movie Painters Painting. When there is not nearby a community of artists you are talking to I find these movies and books very helpful. So thanks for this video! Thanks too for your comments on the stickiness of encaustic. I am really cutting back on the amount of oil I'm adding but I'm worried the vibrant colors I want will be lost. I may have to resort to using R&F, which I really like, but the cost is a bit much for me sometimes.
Joyce, thanks for sharing my video. I am actually originally from Oregon and did live a bit in Santa Fe. Now I live in Montana where the movie was made.
I'm a sporadic blogger. If I haven't posted anything for a while, it probably means that I'm in the studio painting my heart out. Or it may be summer and I'm off sailing with my husband. I always have something to say, but I don't always know how to say it. Please check in often and I may surprise you!
I don't open my art studio for the monthly West Seattle Art Walk, but there are a lot of other talented artists whose work is on display in The Building.
