"Run"

Original Mixed Media Painting

"Run" captures the timeless (and slightly ridiculous) human instinct to bolt at the first sign of… something. A single, frantic silhouette dashes through the scene, propelled by an unseen fear that may or may not exist. Fear and anxiety is a favorite theme of the artist...and this piece has just enough of both, with a little mystery to keep you wondering — and maybe laughing — every time you see it.

• 8 x 8 inches

• Birch wood panel with a 7/8 inch profile 

• Encaustic wax medium, paint

• Artist signature and title on reverse

• Ready to hang

Upon close inspection, you will notice surface imperfections — these are intentional and an essential part of working with encaustic wax. Each mark and texture adds character, making every painting completely unique. I often revisit favorite themes and motifs in my work, but no two pieces are ever exactly alike.

While the wax is fully cured and stable, it remains a delicate surface and can be susceptible to gouging or scraping. Please handle with care.

Do not hang in direct sunlight, as heat can affect the wax medium.
