Meet the Artist
Janel Pahl
2d Mixed Media
Janel, in the last thirty years, has traveled the world photographing the beauty of this earth. Recently, she has extended her creative passion to a new art form. This new medium, encaustic, reflects her love of nature in a pure, simple, artistic form. Textures, layering, color and composition are important features in her pieces. Encaustic is made with beeswax/damar tree resin and layers of the wax medium are applied. Layers are infused with a blow torch and finished with ink transfers, india ink, oils and pastels.
