More About Hana

## Grow. Create. Build.

When I am asked what art medium I create in, I love to tell people, “All Things Wax”. I specialize in two related yet different wax processes, Encaustics, and Cold Wax and Oils. Both mediums lend themselves to layering. The sum of the layers is an additive process that cannot be achieved by mixing the final color alone. It is the truest reflection of nature and light. It is the language I find most relatable, translating what I see and feel in color.
Much of my inspiration comes from the rhythms of nature and organic forms, from the places where I have lived and love; the forests of Europe, Florida’s beautiful coastal waters, and the majestic mountains of Colorado. My intent is to capture a moment I experienced, create something that resonates, share this with others, and transport them to that place. Art is language, and when my art speaks to another person, it is extremely rewarding.
As you engage with my pieces, I invite you to take your time and look deeper. The colors and forms that live just below the surface tell the full story of the time and place of the scene.
