In "The Origin Story (Narrator)," I present the portrait of an Arab man I met in the Czech Republic who shared his personal story with me. As a migrant worker, he worked tirelessly to support his family back home, facing numerous challenges along the way. Through his resilience and determination, he became the narrator of his own story, one that speaks to the struggles and aspirations of many immigrants around the world. The portrait is rendered with a high level of detail and sensitivity, capturing the man's facial features, clothing, and expression. The warm colors and soft brushstrokes convey a sense of intimacy and empathy, inviting the viewer to engage with the subject on a deeper level. Through this painting, I hope to shed light on the experiences of migrants and challenge the stereotypes and prejudices often associated with them. By giving voice to their stories, we can build a more inclusive and compassionate society that recognizes the inherent dignity and worth of every individual, regardless of their background or status. In recent years, I have used OSB as a basis. By retracting the paint layers, I use the texture of the veneer as part of my compositions to create a unique rustic industrial atmosphere. Due to the OSB plate, these artworks are heavy. The painting is made with self-made paint, which consists of pigments and beeswax. Does not contain oil or other paints. The procedure itself dates back to antiquity and has been known for thousands of years. Only a few artists around the world work with wax on their own. The encaustic is equipped with a simple wooden exhibition frame, which harmonizes with the industrial style of the painting and highlights it well. Ready to hang! This work will be delivered with Care Instructions for my encaustic paintings and a signed certificate of authenticity.

„I show the details instead of the whole, sort of inviting the viewer to embrace and understand their surroundings” Dora Stork was selected artist in the London Art Biennale in 2023, an award-winning Hungarian painter whose art has appeared in solo and group exhibitions in the UK, Hungary, and Romania. Her work can also be found in many private collections in the United States, the European Union, and Japan. Dora is an abstract realistic encaustic artist: abstract in the world of color, realistic in the world of form, and symbolist in meaning. As a politically minded painter, she is interested in public life as well as social and economic processes. She presents her particular vision in these works. The dreamlike compositions are her intuitive reflections on public issues. At the same time, seemingly astonishing, strange circumstances and inappropriate details on a rational sphere might evoke questions in the viewer. She mainly uses pure wax and pigments to make her paintings. Over the years, she has developed a medium that does not contain oil or any non-waxy additives. When she occasionally paints with acrylic, the characteristics of her figurative style transform into an imaginary interpretation of nature. Dora is an active, awarded member of her community and regularly takes part in their group exhibitions every year.
