Waterscapes

Water moves with power. In a creek bed, it slips over stones, gathers in shallow pools, and carries small fragments along the way. That steady flow, with sounds shifting, is what draws me in. It feels both grounding and alive, a reminder that movement itself can be a form of stillness.

With encaustic, layers of wax are built up, melted, and reshaped, holding traces of what came before. Some areas stay calm, others dense with depth, like sediment settling in water. I’m interested in that balance between control and letting things happen, allowing the composition to flow. The work becomes less about a fixed image and more about movement, much like water finding its way through the landscape.
