Kate Santucci, "I Thought This Would Be Easier"

Kate Santucci I Thought This Would Be Easier, 2024 Qty. (4) 10in x 10in panels Encaustic on wood $500 -- http://www.katehusersantucci.com -- This piece is a four panel abstract using encaustic paints, graphite, and pigments. It is composed of multiple layers of medium to build up textures, and allow the viewer to see into the painting itself. The piece was created during a time of caretaking for my terminally ill father, and speaks to the complexity of decision making, grief, resolution, acceptance, and peace within our family.
