On the easel, a 36” x 48” birch tree painting that is taking me forever. I love the end result of my process of using a magenta underpainting and then leaving it visible throughout the painting. But with this many individual leaves, it takes a lot of time! #art #maineartist #birchtrees #painting

Here’s a perky little painting to brighten up your Friday — Perky Poppies, 12” x 6” encaustic on panel. I used pottery tools to carve extra texture on top of the multiple layers of wax. . . #painting #flowers #poppies #maineart #encaustic #red

I like working in a circular format every now and again. I felt this format really played up the whimsical feel of this piece. Poppies are a favorite subject; one Fine Day,” is one of several poppy paintings currently available. . #encaustic #landscapepainting #art #onlybeautifulthings #poppies
