She says about her work, “Creating something or painting or taking photographs has always been part of me and over the years I have experimented with a few different styles and techniques. I think I can say that for the moment I have found my ‘niche’ with photography and mixed media. I especially like the term ‘mixed media’ as it can be anything you want it to be as long as you use a few ingredients together.”
I love it too! And I think you do a beautiful job Iris.

It’s called Schismata and it’s by Justice of Photosynthetic on Etsy, a wonderfully talented photographer from Ipswich in the UK.
The description and inspiration Justice used helped to seal the deal for me.
“Another study of a man-made surface in a state of decay and deterioration under the forces of nature, ‘Schismata’ is dilapidated paint on steel, corrosion, a lichen bloom…geometric and organic in counterpoint. Striation, erosion, disintegration, reconstruction, protection, addition…and the process of destruction over which we ultimately have no control.”
Now I must go find the perfect place for it!

Jaime Ribisi, who herself is a very talented and successful encaustic artist deserving of a post all her own. They are handmade, wonderful quality and in beautiful colours. I got my heatgun, brushes, tools, a few other basic things. But, I can’t for the life of me find an electric griddle pan anywhere on this stupid island. A used one, preferably. Anyone? Anywho, it got me browsing encaustic artists and that is how I came upon Kathryn Dart, aka kbean on Etsy, and then I said to myself, “self, she would be perfect for your Artist Spot post”.
I just adore the depth and texture you get with wax. Oh please someone find me a griddle pan.

Watching… True Blood and Whale Wars are my staples at the moment. I watch a lot of movies too.
Making… well jewelry, of course. And soon this serving tray. 🙂
Listening… to my kitty cackle at the birds outside.
Drinking… still… probably too much coffee and not enough water.
Wanting… a proper desk.
Trying… to find my energy, again.
Play along? :)]]>

She says she is inspired by delicate geometric elements found in dandelion clocks, poppy heads and other fragile botanical structures found around where she lives and likes to fuse stylish wear-ability with delicate detailing.
