Encaustic artist Karen Jury and glass artist Karen Wallace both rely on heat. Whether in a crucible or a kiln, raw material is warmed, spread and then cold-worked.
Karen Jury takes her inspiration from world around her. Nature sets the tone and background to her art. Karen’s work starts with one of her photos, but her use of wax, heat, texture and pigments, helps to create a unique feeling to each piece.
Karen Wallace's kilnformed vessels and tabletop sculptures appeal to people who love vibrant color and luscious lines. Her new collection of mask-like glass panels, Windows to the Soul, brings an arresting human presence to her abstract work.
