SUZY WAHL

Creating encaustic monotypes, Suzy Wahl brings contemporary painting to life. Beginning with a glass top hot plate, she pieces portions of colored wax together to draw her design. Once her painting is complete, she takes strong paper and presses it onto its molten surface. Following the traditional technique of monotype prints, Suzy creatively uses wax rather than the traditional use of paint or ink. She creates work reminiscent of landscapes and horizon lines as colors dance between the textured character of each piece: Bright, complex and with a scale both intimate and engaging.
