Encaustics Show in Santa Cruz

An online acquaintance of mine, Sandy Sudbrink, of Santa Cruz, kindly went to the Pajaro Valley Arts Council to see a show in which I have three pieces.  AND SHE TOOK A PHOTO OF MY WORK!!!  How cool is that!  Take a look at Sandy's website of beautiful watercolors.  I particularly like the architectural piece - they have a stillness to them that I find really intriguing.

Here are my pieces in the show, called "WAX: Contemporary Encaustic Works":

If anyone wants to know anything more about encaustics, go here.  If you want to take an encaustics workshop with me, I'm teaching one at Art Unraveled, on Monday, August 6; and again at Art and Soul on Tuesday, October 2.  I'm offering a workshop called Paper and Wax at the Guilford Art Center in Guilford, CT the weekend of October 13 - 14. 

Thanks for visiting!

    congratulations on your showing Jane! They're fantastic pieces. I would love to try encaustics--they're next on my list. If you ever do any workshops on the west coast of Canada just let me know ;-) until then I'll check out your link...

    And you've just started working with encaustics? These are all fantastic. I was trying to choose one I liked better than the others, but can't do it. All the colors are so rich and luminous, and they have a depth of their own. Beautiful.

    love love these encaustics Jane. So vibrant, and exciting. Any chance you might teach a workshop in Mass?
    I have been wanting to try this art form. Just have my fingers into too many pies right now. :)

    Lovely work! Congratulations on your show. Although our work is very different, we have a common interest in wax processes. I see that we will also be teaching together in a couple of locations: Art Unraveled and Create Chicago. I look forward to meeting you there. If you are interested in a great encastic experience, come to San Antonio next September.... www.encausticon.com If you can't come for some reason, please do enter your work in our show! Best, Michelle Belto

    These pieces are so lovely together...their colors, textures and I am very partial to square canvases. Nice work!
