I am just finding my way with it but it is a very exciting and satisfying medium to use.Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12726740154167156916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1561642481755412634.post-38279983416147429892009-11-11T00:02:13.492-03:302009-11-11T00:02:13.492-03:30I admire artist who work in encaustic.

To that goal I have purchased bees wax and brushes devoted only to wax painting.<br /><br />The idea of painting and scraping away I like as it mostly unpredictable and I love the results you have managed to achieve.<br /><br />Enjoy the rest of your week,<br />EgmontThe Artist Within Ushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08081658641380811738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1561642481755412634.post-40283943335506341282009-11-10T13:11:17.438-03:302009-11-10T13:11:17.438-03:30This a change but a nice change.

I wanted the squat, hemmed in feeling that you call containment. The idea of putting up walls between "us and them" was also in my mind. I'm glad you gave this work such serious consideration and succinctly phrased your doubts. I never mind a good critique. I have two friend I rely on who are very good at it, but both were away when these works were finished.Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12726740154167156916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1561642481755412634.post-36058517782919130372009-11-09T10:24:56.097-03:302009-11-09T10:24:56.097-03:30On second thought .... after looking again, I thi...On second thought .... after looking again, I think the L shaped border you created on the lower left side/bottom is effective. It contains the forms that spill into the composition about it.

It allows us to harken back to days when our perceptions were relatively unaffected and less jaded. Your painting shows that simplicity on the surface, but the content is far more complex and adult. This is an effective juxtaposition of emotional perspectives. I'm still thinking about how this painting reads in terms of the division of space. The lower portion is void of the complex interplay above it and acts as a wall.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11037549177881696434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1561642481755412634.post-87116157247156808592009-11-08T20:02:13.754-03:302009-11-08T20:02:13.754-03:30I like this piece and I agree we take ourselves wi...I like this piece and I agree we take ourselves with us in all our work...I like the grid and playful imagery!Blue Sky Dreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12405128176114875597noreply@blogger.com
