New Work Wednesday: Oasis

8/17/2011

Oasis

My new painting this week is entitled Oasis.

This painting layers a Hawaiian map, ink drawing, encaustic (wax), olivine (I purchased on the Big Island of Hawaii), mica, a piece of vintage map and metal, and acrylic on a small stretched canvas.

Hope you are having a wonderful and creative week.

Happy Mid-Week!
Mary
