The FRESH show at ArtSpace in Raleigh features new works by North Carolina artists in a hybrid exhibition that is both in-person and virtual. I am excited to share that my abstract cold wax on panel Ecliptic Series No. 11 will be included in this group show. To see this exhibition and learn more about the show, visit the ArtSpace website.
This body of work is cold wax and oil on wood panels. The properties of cold wax fascinate me and keep me curious; how the underlying layers inform and alter the layers applied over them, how incising and scraping and glazing make more changes. I know I am wielding the palette knife and mixing the colors, but what happens on the panel is beyond my control. I’m learning how to be fine with the state of ‘not knowing’.
