More Art & Soul

Sunday was a glorious day at Art & Soul. The vendor's night was behind me, and I could just relax and play. The class was Poetry in Wax, with Judy Wise. This was my second encaustic class with Judy. This time we worked on wooden panels, and she guided us to compose as if writing a story. This is my piece, Night Flight. It is ambiguous to me. Is she coming or going? Is she an outsider, afraid to go into that house? She would have to cross some beautiful but dangerous waters to get there. (Sheesh, I think I've just psychoanalyzed myself! And of course, I was thinking about none of this as I worked!)

Please check out Judy's post to see all the work done by the students in this class - it was amazing! This time I feel compelled to buy me some wax - I'll be going to the farmers' market tomorrow!
