to Apr 30

Quarantined: Encaustic Art at a Social Distance

In an effort to share a little beauty and inspiration with my Quarantined community, I will be presenting my spring collection of artwork, one painting at a time throughout the month of April. Throughout our human history, art has always remained and will continue to emerge, even in times of war. Creativity and self expression is essential to our humanity. Please enjoy and be inspired.

Works of art are for sale. A portion of all online sales resulting in this show will go to Spokane Arts artist relief fund. If you wish to purchase an artwork DM, email, call or contact me. A deposit will hold the piece until the collector can either see it in person or arrangements for shipping/delivery can be safely made.

All direct pricing is dependent on size. Tax and Shipping rates may apply.

In good health,

Christy
