Encaustic Wax & Botanical Mixed Media Art
More Info
Inspired By Nature:Paula's work is a celebration of nature's fleeting beauty, crafted on an ever-changing canvas.
Paula is an encaustic artist whose mini landscape bud vases explore the relationship between memory, place, and the natural world. Inspired by the Forest of Dean and the subtle shifts of colour throughout the seasons, her work reflects the changing light, erosion, and quiet transformation found in nature. The shifting colours, temperatures, and atmosphere, shape the way she builds and layers wax, translating these quiet transformations into tactile objects that feel both intimate and enduring.
Each bud vase becomes a personal keepsake, a miniature landscape that holds a moment in time, inviting reflection and connection. Both functional and contemplative, her vases are designed to hold a single stem or remain as stand-alone objects, bringing a sense of calm, nature, and timelessness into the home.
Wax is also associated with a 16th Wedding Anniversary, so sealing an anniversary poem or a love quote in wax, allows her to become personally and emotionally involved. These mementos, including heartfelt quotes and emotions, are captured, sealed, and are only unveiled when there is a desire to do so, making them unique gifts. These waxed expressions become your very own personal ‘message in a bottle’.
Paula's paintings are a mix of varying styles; mark making, mono-printing, eco printing, oils, acrylics, incorporating ephemera and tea bag art, to bring depth and movement. Her aim is to bring texture to express how she sees her surroundings. Her passion fuels exploration of texture and atmosphere, creating paintings that express the soul of the landscape that inspire her. Each piece invites a closer look, revealing hidden layers of colour, mark making and meaning. Blending organic textures, botanical elements and layered pigments, creating art that feels ethereal with timeless elegance.
Using an age-old photographic process, called cyanotypes, Paula also produces elegant jewellery, using the power of the sun with botanical plant material. Her creations invite others to connect with the elegance of flowers and sustainable artistry. By producing one-of-a-kind impressions, these are not merely visual; they are tactile and evocative. The intricate veins of a leaf, or the soft curves of petals are preserved in breathtaking detail, a testament to nature's artistry.
Most of Paula's practice’s involve nature, and the blending of botanical forms, either complementing them with wax and paints, or expressing them in a form of tactile art.
Summary.
Whether adorning a home, or a gallery wall, Paula's creations invite you to pause and reconnect with the natural world, offering a reminder of the beauty that surrounds us every day. Her story telling through nature, is preserved and re-imagined, designed to evoke wonder, serenity and connection.
