WAX(in')Blue: An Encaustic Exhibition Opening Reception

Wax(in')Blue is a juried exhibition featuring work from 25 encaustic artists from around the Midwest. The title refers to the color blue and all of its meanings. Each artist has approached this theme in their own way, resulting in an exhibition filled with different styles, techniques and new takes on the encaustic medium (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encaustic_painting).

Kathleen Waterloo and Kathy Blankley Roman were the jurors of this show, which will be on exhibit from August 10th until the 31st on Fridays and Saturdays from 1 to 6 pm (or by appointment). Morpho Gallery is located at 5216 North Damen Ave, Chicago IL 60625.
