About the Work

My encaustic paintings blend digital design, color, and hand-touched detail in a way that feels modern, calm, and intentional — a good match for workplaces, lobbies, hospitality, and wellness environments. Every piece begins as a digital drawing in Adobe Illustrator, then gets printed on thin rice paper, fused to a wood panel, and finished dot by dot using a heated wax stylus. The result is work that reads clean and structured from across a room, but reveals texture, warmth, and surprising color relationships up close.

What I offer

Custom artworks for offices, lobbies, conference rooms, hospitality spaces, and wellness environments
Multi-piece suites designed for cohesive flow across floors or departments
Palette-driven groupings that coordinate with architecture and interior finishes
Commissioned works based on size, palette, and overall mood or function
Diptychs and triptychs for wider or taller presentation spaces
Direct collaboration with designers, workplace experience teams, and art consultants

Why This Work Fits Corporate Spaces

My paintings pair clear structure with a lot of quiet detail, which makes them easy to place in nearly any environment. The digital underlayer provides clean geometry and balance; the wax and dot work bring warmth and a human touch. Up close you see texture and rhythm; from a distance the work feels composed, modern, and purposeful.

Because each piece begins digitally, I can tailor the structure and palette to support the flow of a larger space. And because each piece is finished by hand, no two are ever the same — even in a coordinated suite.

Commission Process

Start the Conversation

Share the space, palette, and general direction — a mood board, floor plan, or simple photos are plenty.

Digital Design

I create the underlying design in Adobe Illustrator using circles, lines, arcs, and repeating forms. This becomes the “bones” of the piece and allows us to explore palette options before the wax ever comes out.

Rice Paper Transfer

Once approved, the design is printed on thin rice paper and fused onto a wood panel coated with clear encaustic medium. This sets the foundation for the final piece.

Dot-by-Dot Surface Work

Using a heated wax stylus, I build the surface one dot at a time. A 36" × 36" piece typically has around 140,000 dots, creating texture, warmth, and depth that read beautifully in corporate environments.

Delivery & Installation Coordination
Paragraph

I work with your designer or facilities team to ensure smooth installation, whether it’s a single work or a coordinated suite.

Selected Series

This gallery is organized to show each piece three ways: the full painting, a close-up of the dot and wax texture, and an in-situ view so you can see how the work feels in a real space. Together, these three perspectives give a quick sense of structure, detail, and scale.
