Come to the Edmonds Art Studio Tour September 21 & 22!

September 21 & 22 I will be showing art and demonstrating the encaustic and mixed media process at the Edmonds Art Studio Tour (studio #7).  If you are in the greater Seattle area, please stop by between 10 am and 5 pm. The charming, seaside city of Edmonds is located approximately 30 minutes north of Seattle. There will be 44 artists showing at 23 studios!

I will be a guest of Lynn Scott Studio, which is Studio #7 on the tour map, which you can download here:  www.EdmondsArtStudioTour.com. If you wish to receive a hard copy brochure of the tour (with map), please send your address (snail mail and email) to me at: JonesMooreStudioArt@gmail.com. I participate in this studio tour ONLY once every other year, so after this one, I won't be back until 2015! I hope to see you there!

Brave students and creative experiments from my two encaustic workshops at Schack Art Center (Everett, WA) in August! Way to go gals!

Sold, but not forgotten...

 Well, I just completed this very personal piece, and, yes, it SOLD!. The title is "The Dream: Release", and the vision did come to me in a dream. And yes, I am fantasizing about "escape" and "release" lately (how selfish of me)! This was done in encaustic with graphite, oil pastel, metallic powders and glass "threads". The squares are all done with hand-made stencils and are "raised" from the surface. Time to do another one! Hope you enjoy...

Thanks to Alex Strazzanti of Seattle for your beautiful (and quick) professional photos!

In the studio...

Ongoing work in the studio! These are "detail" shots of ongoing, sea-themed encaustic work I am pursuing in the studio. My main inspiration? My trip to gorgeous Loreto, Mexico in March. The desert-meets-Sea of Cortez colors, awesome sea life and natural elements. The TEXTURES there are mind-blowing, begging to be included in encautic wax! More work to come...
