Martin Benson Art
American
Martin Benson is a painter, sculptor and installation artist. His work emerges from his meditation practice, which peels back the layers of identity until a place of pure clarity and awareness is uncovered. Benson constructs his shaped canvases comprised of meticulously painted color swatches in varying sequences. Benson ultimately intents to provide an art form that invites the viewer to look and experience without the need for immediate interpretation or intellectualization.

Growth Zone, 40 inch encaustic earth tone abstract painting in wood frame
Located in Basalt, CO
Encaustic is a beeswax-based paint that is applied to a surface while molten and then fused with heat, resulting in a layered, textural effect. The texture of the wax creates interesting patterns and organic shapes within the painting, giving it depth, a tactile quality and adding to its visual appeal. There is no other painting medium that replicate these qualities. The encaustic medium itself creates a luminous and slightly translucent surface that can give the painting a sense of depth and richness.
