This collection explores elements of partly obscured and partially glimpsed 'Gardens of Eden'.  

All are Encaustic (layers of organically refined beeswax) and mixed media.  Two of the above works are prepared in a particularly special way using traditional Venetian plaster i.e. Fresco as an underpainting, which provides a rich and absorbent ground for Encaustic.
