Fire Poppies

Encaustic and handmade paper. In California, the rare fire poppy blossoms in places that have recently burned. After all the fires and floods, poppies are becoming a symbol of recovery and hope.
The Collector Revisited
18 x 18 x 1.5 inches
$1200
Encaustic and beeswax crayons. In 2013 I painted a small photo realistic version of “The Collector.” It was the first piece that made me feel like I really was an artist. The revisit is a larger, bolder, more abstract version drawn with beeswax crayons and painted with encaustic. It’s a reminder that sometimes we just need to play.
