"Of Land and Sea" calls out to our connections with nature, reflecting abstracted subject matter through the natural medium of encaustic. The four artists' interpretations will transport viewers to long-loved land and sea scapes, ones that reflect the rhythms of the natural world. The encaustic medium is so unique with its translucency created by multiple layers, textures and sheen.

We are a group of four South Australian Encaustic artists, practising from our home studios.
Encaustic medium is composed of beeswax and damar resin. We paint with molten, pigmented medium, with each layer fused using a heat-gun or blowtorch. Pieces might be painted with around 15-20 layers. Our work continues to harden after completion and takes on an enamel-like quality.
