It’s day 27 of 30 Paintings in 30 Days!
I am obsessed with the vibrant blue hue in this painting! The tan, black and brown driftwood combined with this vermillion blue just makes me think of hanging out in a pair of comfy jeans on the beach with the salty air making my hair puffy.
No beach for me today but the rain outside might mess with my hair!

The paintings I create during the 30 Paintings in 30 Days challenge will be included in my NATURE CURATED series which captures the essence of place by encapsulating carefully chosen mementos nature has seemingly left behind in a thick bed of pigmented encaustic wax. To create these paintings I explore the ocean shore and forest floor to find the perfect, unique objects (shells, pine cones, driftwood and stones) to embed in a luscious layer of wax. All of these natural objects tells the story of its origin, like the smooth edges on driftwood illustrates the journey it took undulating back and forth against the rough ocean shore. Each three-dimensional fine art painting is unique, signed by me, ready to hang and includes the place of origin.
