A daughter of Nereus and Doris,
Amatheia drifts through the water with her famed azure locks—
a Nereid who embodies the sea’s allure and shimmering voice.
Here she moves like liquid light,
a quiet hymn to the beauty born beneath the waves..
Created through a process that merges modern photography and printmaking with the ancient art of encaustic, layers of molten beeswax, oils, and resins are built up and fused with fire. The textured surface invites touch, its translucent depth suggesting both concealment and revelation. A one-of-a-kind encaustic mixed media painting — where photography, molten beeswax, and oils merge to reveal a serene underwater world. Layers of texture and translucency create a luminous depth that can only be achieved through fire and time.
Galatea of the Grey Seas
Photography, fine printmaking, and archivally adhered to cradled wood panel, various fine art mediums including pan pastels, oil paint, and encaustic
52 × 44 × 1.5 inches
