Winter Heat

Winter Heat
11"x 11 " encaustic on panel

This is one of several encaustic ( hot wax + pigment) paintings I have recently started.  Abstracted landscapes of winter,  finding some bright color in what feels like grey monochromatic winters.  Ususally the most colorful part of my day is sunset.  Often the only time during the day I get to see the sky is on my drive to and from work.  Luckily for me, that means being able to enjoy the vivid sunrises and sunsets.

  1. Hi Judy,

    Love your explanation...I can only imagine the beautiful sunrises and sunsets you get to enjoy! How lucky, especially with this terrible winter, bright colors are greatly appreciated!! LOL!

    Are you planing on attending the Encaustic Conference in PTown in June?

  2. Thanks Corina for reminding me about the Encaustic Conference. It sounds great, it looks like several of the workshops that interest me are full already. I won't be able to do it this year. But, I am excited that you are going. And I would love to hear from you about the conference after you get back from it. Sounds fun and stimulating.
