Hot Palette: Dianne Jean Erickson
August 4th – September 15th, 2017
Dianne Jean Erickson is a painter, printmaker and encaustic artist producing works of art both personal and universal in their nature.
“Each day working in my studio I start not knowing what image will emerge. I allow myself the freedom of indecisions, improvisations, and impulsiveness in my work, and that leads to exciting discoveries. Subjects of my encaustic (hot wax) work are non-objective and figurative painting and printmaking.”
The exhibition highlights her encaustic paintings and encaustic monotypes. Her artwork is of a figurative and portraiture nature, with a whimsical series exploring head gear.
This exhibition is sponsored by Wealth Management Group of Oregon.
First Friday Live: August 4th and September 1st, from 5 – 9 pm
Admission is free.
