Sonya Wood

May 26, 2020 by

Medium: Encaustic

About:

Sonya is an encaustic artist, from the foothills of the Sierra Nevadas in Northern California, who focuses on florals and nature. Many of her inspirations start with her photography of nature, some which can be seen here. Sonya creates her encaustic pieces on birch panels using layers of wax as well as clay sculpting tools to give texture and three dimensionality to her work.

The layers of wax are fused together with a propane blow torch as well as an encaustic iron and stylist. As many as 8-10 layers of white medium (damar resin and beeswax) are used to “build” the relief of the composition and when satisfied, the final layers of color are added.
Sonya’s favorite medium is encaustic painting, but also creates stunning pieces in alcohol ink, watercolors and photography. However, sometimes the photos become the art themselves. Many of her creations will have the original photograph to compare and may be displayed in the photography gallery.
