MOZELLE:

Much of my work is about serendipity… small objects discarded on the street, other people’s memories in antiques shops. All of these odd bits and pieces add to the serendipity when some of those items find their way into my mixed media pieces.

Painting in encaustic has its own serendipity. The medium is molten, fluid, and sensual. I start with a blank panel and begin building layer upon layer. As I work, my hands seem to take over as my mind retreats into the background and each piece speaks its own mind.

Whether it’s mixed media or encaustic, the elements that come to hand for each piece, the words I type, or the fragments of writing I add, all tell me what that story is.

I leave it to the viewer to create their own story…
