These encaustic paintings were inspired by the beautiful environments of my recent trips to California.

The land, sea and sky rolled and undulated as if directed by a magical source. The hills floated into an endless sky and the trees stood proud and determined in their community; strengthened by the unrelenting sun, wind and fires. The sea had so much to say- hypnotizing words built of patterns and sound that pounded rhythms of calm into the soul. The light amplified the perfect views set on an incredibly vast stage. Awards should be handed out for lighting, special effects and scoring. It was a pleasure to bring these moments home. I’m looking forward to my return west to gather more inspiration.
