Artist's Spotlight: Kay Hughes

Profile:

Several years ago, I decided to quit the corporate world, and ‘just paint’. My education is in Interior Design, but my first love is painting. I have been fortunate enough to have studied with several artists in the Netherlands, England and here in the States.

In 2000, I started my own company, Knott Garden LLC. I learned about Encaustics in 2008 and took workshops in 2009.

Statement

The construction or assembly process in encaustics is fun and exciting after painting with acrylics.
