Artist: Sandy Knapp

Artist: Sandy Knapp

As part of our ‘Artist in Residence’ program, Sandy Knapp will appear at the Gallery on June 25th from 6 – 9 p.m. to discuss her encaustic paintings.

Encaustic refers to the ancient art of painting with wax.  Examples of encaustic painting date back to 800 BC., and are created by combining 100-200 layers of thinly applied wax.  To create her vibrant works of art, Sandy uses paint brushes, colored beeswax resin and a heat gun.

Join us for an up-close look at Sandy’s work and more on her unique artistic process.
