I’m one of those people who collects rocks wherever I go. They accumulate at home and I know where each one came from, who I was with when I found them, and why each one is important to me. Most are from lake Ontario, Maine, England, Ireland, and places I used to live. Some are arranged in small tributes, others are strewn about; when I come upon them I get the whole memory at a glance. The rocks in this series of small encaustic paintings are from the south shore of Lake Ontario. I’m curious about how they came to be with so many painterly features. I present them in this body of work as intimate rock portraits. Click through to see full images, hover for details and availability; price guide.
