About the Item

encaustic on square wood panel
Stella is an abstracted painting in rich encaustic (pigmented wax) on wood panel. Using a neutral palette of dark brown, light blue and pale grey, horizontal lines are closely stacked with the occasional highlight of bright, citron yellow. Donise English is well known for her quirky shapes that, as implied by the titles, take on structures like barns or houses pitted against a backdrop, or bizarre alien figurative shapes outlined by the horizon.
This artist's abstract geometric designs resemble architectural drawings or maps. Her fascination with constructed patters extends into her latest body of work that draws inspiration from quilts and the hands - on process in which they're made.
The artist received her MFA from Bard College and is currently a Professor of Studio Art at Marist College in Poughkeepsie, NY.
Artist Statement:
I am interested in drawing and collaging multiple layers of information that refer abstractly to maps, architectural drawings and blueprints or patterns and structures found in such things as roller coasters, power lines, and fences. I use gouache and collaged paper in a series of layers that are a visual and ideological response to the previous layer to define my pictorial space.
For each piece, I create a set of rules to follw about the use of a limited palette, a grid format, opacity of paper and whether a piece may include curing lines or maintain a rectilinear struture.

By Alaina Enslen

Abstract geometric encaustic painting in patterned ochre on white
"Centuries Spliced Open" made by Hudson Valley artist, Alaina Enslen, in 2022
Encaustic & monotype mounted on panel
30 x 41 x 2 inches, sides reveal raw wood sides
Excellent condition, ready to hang
Lightweight
Signed, verso
This abstract minimalist painting is made with pattered ochre monotypes on an encaustic white background. The paper, which is adhered to a light wood Birch panel and layered with a subtle layer of encaustic, is arranged in a geometric motif that accentuates the play of negative space. The layered paper and encaustic create a textured, impasto surface.
About the artist:
Alaina Enslen expresses her artistic vision through repurposed fabrics infused with beeswax. The Cornwall-On-Hudson based artist collects pieces of textile that evoke memory, tradition, or experience like cherished worn heirlooms, discarded clothes, and religious garments, which are then assembled on panel in an abstract patchwork. Favoring fabrics with a neutral or subtle cool palette, she flattens and frays the material to explore color, form, and lines, reimaging used cloth...

Chasmanthium Insignias: Abstract Encaustic Painting with Green, Earth Tones
By Allyson Levy
Located in Hudson, NY
Abstract encaustic painting with a green, earth toned palette.
Made with natural plant material (Northern Sea Oats)
"Chasmanthium Insignias I" made by Allyson Levy in 2021
encaustic and plant material on wood panel, 24 x 24 x 1 inches
Lightweight, hangs with one d-ring, Signed, verso
This modern abstract encaustic painting by Allyson Levy is made with Northern Sea Oats and green encaustic, sealed with a layer of neutral wax on a wood panel. The artist begins by finding the organic material in her 4-acre garden in upstate New York which she then arranges and embeds with encaustic on a wooden panel. The brown, earth toned sea oats are laid in a linear pattern on a wood panel with a surface of green encaustic and then sealed with clear wax. The encaustic wraps around to the sides of the panel, revealing some bumps and downward drips, accumulated during the natural drying process. The piece is lightweight and hangs on one d-ring.
About the artist and her work:
After moving to the rural town of Stone Ridge, NY seventeen years ago and starting a 4-acre botanical garden with her husband, mixed media artist, Allyson Levy, has found endless inspiration in the plant kingdom that surrounds her. The garden itself, named “Hortus Conclusus”, consisting of thousands of rare plants and edibles, remains at the epicenter of Levy’s art making. A fascination with earth’s bounty is expressed with her works in encaustic. Assorted organic material such as leaves, seeds, branches, insect wings...
