fine art

As a professional photographer for over a decade there were certain aspects of my art I could dream of– but in some cases could not translate things I envisioned in camera only without digital manipulation. (like the ethereal softness or guazey movement ) 

In 2019-I began to combine ‘painting with fire’ (encaustic painting) and my photographs and was able to begin creating what I could only before envision in my head.

My work focuses on abstracting landscapes and telling powerful stories of women–many times together in a single piece using photographs, fire-heated waxes, texturizing elements (like tissue and pottery tools) depicting movement, energy and peace.
