I thought this Intonaco surface (pit lime and marble dust used for fresco painting), drawing (charcoal/graphite), and encaustic could help express the feelings that so many in the US and the world are experiencing. The title is: 2025

Have been experimenting with encaustic over drawing and watercolor. Here is a test piece with encaustic on the right to show the difference. I'm loving how it changes the feel and tone of the image. #contemporaryfigurativeart #figurativeart #drawing #mixedmedia #fineart #encaustic #blueskyart

Have continued to experiment with creating fresco-like surfaces (gesso, plaster, marble dust, paint washes) for drawing, and so far this one has been the most successful. Will keep trying :) #drawing #contemporaryfigurativeart #mixedmedia #blueskyart #portrait
