Fine Art

I recently jumped into a new creative outlet called photo encaustic, which is where my photography takes a creative twist by fusing with hot beeswax, pigments, and texture.  I am able to combine my favorite images into a mixed media art piece.  Images are printed onto tissue paper and embedded into the piece with beeswax.  It is a labor intensive, fun process that allows me to use a blow torch!

All the pieces below were made for the Windows of Life at Neiman Marcus to help the Houston SPCA adopt out kitties and puppies in need of homes.

Commissioned works are also available. Contact kim@kimhartz for more details.
