About the Item

This is a one of a kind original encaustic mixed media artwork by Tiffany Bociek. Its dimensions are 36" x 36" x 2.3". A certificate of authenticity will follow delivery. Created through encaustic (wax) painting, Bociek underscores several states of being: well-being, challenge, chaos, and transformation. In experiencing these works, we see that the physical layering of the wax draws a lovely parallel to memories that are passed down from one generation to the next as each is added to the collective family narrative. Her practice results in the creation of a spirited scene – some almost diorama-like – that is rich with detail and imagery. The artist reflects on the circle of life, and the power of nature to ground us through her layered and sentimental works. A note from the artist: I grew up with ghosts. I have walked the churchyard homes of family members I had never met; I have read the diary of my great-grandmother, crying for the heartbreak of her losses, as well as celebrating jubilance for her resilience. I live within the context of my familial history, weaving the strong relationships of my present with my ancestral connection to the past, especially when my own challenges and disruptions force me to shift and change. The refuge I find in the earthly world deepens my imagination, finding solace in my family garden, transforming the beauty of the botanicals into imaginative symbols of the profound connection between nature and the human spirit, and contains reminders of the circle of life. Encaustic allows me to intertwine my love of drawing in combination with painting and collage, pushing images back into an ethereal haze with each layer of wax. The nature of the medium forces me to confront my perfectionism and embrace the unexpected in the artmaking process. Much like I find solace in making my work, I invite you to escape, to let go of the weight of the world, and to revel in the beauty of the imagination. With this work I aim to evoke a gentle smile, a spark of joy, and a connection to your own inner daydreamer.

Oil and Wax Painting by New York Contemporary Artist Sandrine Kern 'Untitled 55'
By Sandrine Kern
Located in White Plains, NY
Available at Madelyn Jordon Fine Art. 'Blue' by New York City based, French artist Sandrine Kern. 2025. Oil and cold wax on canvas, 40 x 50 in. This abstracted landscape painting features a pond scene in colors of blue, green, and white. Sandrine Kern's water lillies is a joyful, gestural interpretation of a tranquil pond adorned with water lilies. A separate and beloved series from previous works, the lyrical brush strokes and dramatic color palettes are freer and more figurative. Kern's practice combines oil sticks, oil paint, and cold wax to create a creamy, rich surface with subtle textured layers to portray the large-scale, zoomed-in water scenes. Sandrine Kern was born in Paris, France where she received an MFA from the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Arts. Her work has been shown nationally in solo shows at Madelyn Jordon Fine Art, OK Harris - New York, Thomas Paul Fine Art - Los Angeles, Gail Harvey Gallery - Santa Monica. She has also been shown at the San Francisco Art Fair, Dallas Art Fair, Chicago Art Fair, ART MRKT San Francisco, Art Miami, Toronto Art Fair, and other national and international art fairs. Kern was elected for membership of the Fondation Taylor in Paris, France in June 2016. Her work has been featured in New York Arts Magazine April 2003, OK Harris Randem Publishing, Wabi-Sabi Painting...
