Curated by James Moore and Linda Augier

The encaustic arts are inherently a metamorphic process as beeswax, damar resin and various oil paints and pigments (and whatever other found objects may be incorporated) are layered, mixed and blended with the help of direct heat – usually a propane torch. And the results are often alchemical in how what is created is original and unexpected, in fact something more than expected or intended.

(Metamorphic Alchemy runs July 13 – August 17 and the opening is on July 13 from 5 to 7.)

Curators James Moore and Linda Augier personally selected the artists in this show. This show will display the works of twelve encaustic artists from the east and west sides of WA State.

DATES: Opening reception: July 13, 5-7pm. Exhibit: July 13-Aug 17. LOCATION: Confluence Gallery, 104 Glover Street, Twisp, WA. INFO/CONTACT: 509-997-2787, info@confluencegallery.com, confluencegallery.com.
