New work using cold wax medium


Due to a shoulder injury a few months ago I've had to put encaustic painting aside for a while and instead have been exploring the possibilities of working with cold wax medium combined with oil paint, dry pigments, ash, sand and other media. These works are quite small and I plan to incorporate them into larger works later.  They are on board.

Underlying these works are ideas about invisible processes, time and space. The interactions of subatomic particles are believed to be responsible for the formation of all the matter and energy.
