SUMMARY:February 2024 Meeting:  Playing with Fire\, Color\, and Wax
DESCRIPTION:What is Encaustics?  How do I paint with wax?  Let’s take a look at the basics of this versatile medium.  It’s fascinating\, sometimes frustrating\, yet a lot of fun.  Below are examples of Jaimie’s take on this ancient technique practiced by Greek artists as far back as the 5th Century B.C.  See more HERE in her online exhibit\, Big Skies and Water Dreams. \n\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Winter Trees\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Morning in Tuscany\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Warm Italian Light\n				\n		\n\nTake a look at this YouTube video of the beauty of encaustics in action by artist Alicia Tormey. \nAbout the presenter\, Jaimie Ladysh: \n \nJaimie is a lens based interdisciplinary artist. Her work is rooted in place in a spiritual way within the natural world. Currently exploring digital with edited and some composited images\, she prints the images on special archival papers\, then further manipulates with hand-coloring\, painting\, and sometimes encaustics. The results are often described as ethereal. Whether representational or abstract\, she seeks the little mysteries found when light models on forms and color. \nJaimie has a long use photography of traditional film and silver gelatin\, Cyanotype\, Van Dyke\, Photograms\, photo manipulations\, infrared\, and other alternative processes. As a fine art major\, she began exploring hand tinting\, coloring\, and painting of photographs with oils\, pencils\, and water based media while at the university. She used 35 mm\, 2 1/4 x 21/4\, and toy cameras. \nHer work is archival; made with materials for longevity. She has been in many galleries\, press\, and venues. Pieces are in private\, public\, and corporate collections. All pieces are in limited editions of 10 or 15 in one or more sizes. \nJaimie was born in Ohio\, and has lived in a variety of places in many states and countries. She earned a BFA from University of Montana with a certificate to teach. She has been an art educator in Houston for 30 years. \nVisit Our Artists Webpage to see more of her work!  Note: All VAS members can get their own page – just fill out the FORM! \nDoors open at DEGALLERY at 5:30pm for our February meeting.  There will be light refreshments.  Come by a bit early\, chat and catch up!
