to those times and places that have meant the most to me in my life.”

Meet the artist . . .

Anne Stine is a mixed media artist based in the Washington DC metropolitan area.

Her multi-layered encaustic paintings are inspired by her deep passion for the geometry, patterns, colors, and textures of nature; and her work is known for its vivid color, dramatic texture, and deep luminosity.

What is encaustic?

Encaustic paint is a unique and ancient medium made from a blend of molten beeswax, damar resin, and pigments. Applied in layers while warm, each layer is fused with a blowtorch, creating rich textures and luminous surfaces. This versatile medium allows for vibrant colors, depth, and a tactile quality that invites exploration.

In her work, Anne often incorporates mixed media as a foundational base or to add intricate details. Using materials like India ink, pan pastels, chalk paint, and wax pencil, she creates layered compositions that bring extra texture and dimension to the encaustic surface. These elements blend seamlessly with the wax, adding complexity and depth that draw the viewer deeper into the artwork.
