Shops The Regeneration of Gossamer No. 8 | Original Encaustic Mixed Media Painting by Katie C. Gutierrez

Original encaustic mixed media painting, mounted in gold wood floating frame.  Artwork measures 6" x 6" (7" square with frame.)  

My REGENERATION series of paintings is about growing as an artist through experimentation and risk by reworking finished paintings.  It is liberating to destroy a piece that at one time was perfect and “done," but now feels amateur, stagnant, and depressing.  By risking these pieces in the hope of giving them a renewed beauty, I allow myself to reinvigorate who I am as an artist as well as my overall sense of optimism. shops
