Blue Waves I Print

The paintings in this series have been created using the ash from the California wildfires that devastated much of our beautiful home in Malibu and challenged the strength of our human spirit. Encaustic painting has used fire and ash in its’ creative transformative process since the 5th century, making this medium a unique way in which to express the emotional burning and resurgence that the fires brought to our community. When I first began gathering ashes into jars, I was attempting to preserve a part of what was lost and honor the grief of devastation, but as I worked the ash into these paintings, it became clear that their expression would instead reflect the alchemy of renewal. I found the ethereal quality that emerged in the paintings representative of the journey from ASHES TO ALCHEMY. The paintings provide a glimpse into a hopeful future as they reflect an expression of the transformative resurgence of life that burns strong in our community.
