Betsy Eby

Lobes of Eta
60 x 42 · Encaustic on Panel · 2007

detail
This painting is by Betsy Eby, an encaustic artist who works on the coast of Washington State and summers in her studio on the coast of Maine. From my own experience with encaustic, I found it easy to create a textured, sensuous surface, but Eby creates such smooth, almost glassy surfaces in her work that I want to meet her paintings in person and touch them! She recently had a one-person show of new paintings at Jean Efron Fine Art in Washington, D.C. Visit Betsy here to see her studios and more of her lovely work.
