About the Item

Black, white, and green abstract mixed media painting on paper by Ohio artist Mel Rea "Grow to the Up IX" Ink, Acrylic, Powdered Graphite on Paper 30" x 22"- unframed Created in 2016 _____________________ About the artist: MEL REA- Cleveland, Ohio "As a young girl, I felt such a sense of peace walking amongst my grandfather’s hives. I developed a very deep connection, respect, and appreciation for Mother Nature. Like many artists, she is a constant source of inspiration. This connection along with that old batch of beeswax is what led my transition away from clay and into encaustic painting (painting with molten beeswax). I am grateful for the intense labors of the beautiful honeybee, and consider beeswax a unique gift to be treasured. As a strange twist of fate, my name is translated in the Greek word for “honeybee”.
