Uncertainty, encaustic with oils & beeswax, over watercolor, on cradled panel, 8 x 8 inches

ARTIST STATEMENT:

Uncertainty is about this moment when the sustainability of life on this planet, hope for democracy, and the fabric of human connection all are tenuous. The subject is a receding glacier with a dark, foreboding background illuminated by ambiguous light. Themes of darkness and unexpected glimmers of light permeate work I created during COVID isolation. The minor key of this piece, with notes of deep sadness, unease and a degree of hope, reflects a tenuous moment in time, tempered by resilience, infused with urgency.
