Alchemy & Art

Dynamic, swirling strokes and expressive textures, a play of light and dark, depth and movement, contrasting with the calm and peaceful spiritual images. The use of color and mixed media lends an ethereal and contemplative atmosphere to the artwork.

Welcome To Alchemy and Art

Combining the ancient art of Encaustic painting with my original photography… the calm emerging out of the chaos is fused in multiple layers of beeswax. Layers upon layers of wax create tempest storms, cosmic space, or chaotic lava flows appearing in the melted wax that vividly covers each piece with rich textures and colors. Contemplative photography brings a calming presence to these almost overwhelming themes creating a balance between the yin and yang found everywhere in the world around us.
