"Muse of Transition", Encaustic, Oil, and Paper on Wood
Located in Detroit, MI
Celebrating our common colors as well as our diversity is Linden Godlove’s latest series of encaustics, “The Muses.” The paintings are modeled after icons, with a direct gaze that hearkens a response to their spirit, to find company in their character. This particular piece is the "Muse of Transition" and is part of a set of nine that are sold separately from one another.
Encaustic painting is an ancient art form (some early icons are encaustic), where hot wax is mixed with pigment and resin, and painted while liquid. Throughout the process, everything is repeatedly fused with fire and sometimes things melt in an unintended direction. Linden’s process involves repeatedly carving parts out and filling them back in, so the works are splayed out in a loose application of hot liquid, then cut back, then washed over with brushes of hot wax again. It’s a combination of chaos and control.
The series draws inspiration from women all over the globe, as originally photographed by Mihaela Noroc for her book The Atlas of Beauty. A portion of the proceeds from these sales will go towards her project.
While internationally influenced, the pieces were painted, scraped, and carved at the artist’s hundred year old Detroit...

While internationally influenced, the pieces were painted, scraped, and carved at the artist’s hundred year old Detroit home during the 2020 quarantine. The crooked imperfections and luminescent radiance mirror our humanity. You can trace the same shared palette in their hair and skin back and forth among the muses. They are each solitary, but connected to each other, as are we.
Linden Godlove has been exhibiting in Metro Detroit for over a decade, including the Scarab Club, Detroit Artists Market, and Paint Creek Center for the Arts. Linden mostly taught herself art by pouring over books, including children’s illustrations, art nouveau...
