Exploring the old and always looking to the future. Anne Kennedy’s career as a Cytologist was defined by looking for the smallest of changes in shapes and colors of cells of the human body, using the microscope. For many years, this was her art. She now works in oils, mixed media, alcohol inks, and her passion, encaustics. She has found her true calling as an artist with this natural medium. Being a beekeeper, she uses the wax from her bees mixed with the resin of trees and pure earth pigments to make the "paint" that she works with. The sensuality of melted wax, the luscious colors, the feeling of working with this difficult, but forgiving medium has found a forever place in my heart. Excitement abounds with the possibilities when viewing a blank substrate to be embellished with this timeless medium.
