They are not traditional oil paintings!
I add cold wax to the color and paint with various kitchen tools. I also paint encaustic which is hot wax and I use a heat gun or blowtorch
The effects are vivid and impressionistic.
There's a painting everywhere I go!
As a plein air painter I travel frequently to some of our most outstanding landscapes here in the west. Attending Plein air printouts and conventions also allows me to get to so many different places. I am based in Arizona and show my work in both Gold Canyon where I live and in Sedona.
During the warmer months I will retreat to the studio and paint larger paintings from my many photos. I prefer using my own photos as I have been there and have absorbed the atmosphere of the place.
I do also paint custom requests from clients photos if I haven't been there onsite.

Why I use the wax mediums......It's fun! ....and effective
Wax mediums are experiencing renaissance in contemporary painting with their rich texture , luminous finish and versatility. Once an ancient Egyptian and Roman technique, hot and cold wax have evolved into dynamic tools so I can create depth, dimension and durability. It frees me from the limitations of traditional acrtylics and oils.
What makes wax so compelling is that it is fun! It has the ability to fuse with pigments, embed materials and create layered almost geological surfaces. Wax offers a tactile experience that gets really immersive. The encaustic or hot wax is created in a hot pottle of pigment and wax. I paint the wax on hot and then fuse it into the layers below with a heat heat or blow torch! Talk about random! Yo u kind of get there but in a pretty casual way.
While most artists tend to go for the really abstract, I prefer to use it in am impressionistic style in my landscapes. I teach classes all over. I am based in Phoenix AZ but happily leave the heat of the valley to teach all over. I take groups up to 12 students. Contact me if you are interested in learning these fun techniques.
